Pleasanton Ridge
Finally rode this park today with a former coworker who now works near me. It's conveniently located just off the freeway on my way home from work, but I don't think I'll be spending much time here after today.
Despite the name, Pleasanton Ridge is anything but pleasant on a bike. It's miles of featureless fireroad that just go up, up, and up, leaving you with nothing to think about but how much it sucks to be pedaling, pedaling, pedaling in such a boring park.
It didn't help that I wasn't feeling very well. I've been staying up way too late watching the Olympics, and it has taken a toll. My legs were tired and my stomach felt queasy. How ironic; the Olympics is proving to be bad for my fitness and health.
Now if you'll excuse me, men's gymnastics is on.
