Stanford Wednesday Night Skate Start/Museum Way Parking | Stanford, CA
It is coming down pretty good as I write this but that is supposed to finish up around midnight. Then we will have a couple sunny days before start time. Plenty of time to dry recently cleaned roads for another wonderful roll.Looks like the temperature will be in the bottom of the 60's. Not exactly summer, but warmer than summer in San Francisco. No moon. Definately bring your blinkers.
As always, we will have eleven miles of rolling hills, smooth pavement, and fun pepes.
Bring skates, bike, scooter, or any other sort of human-powered conveyance to the Museum Way parking lot between Palm Drive and the Canter Art Museum by 7:30pm. Lace-up. At 7:50pm (sort of) we launch into the darkness.
Power up the Cedro Way "Summit" hill. Take in the views from the top. Wander back down before the "don't miss" hard left.
Skate up Page Mill. Down a little and then up some more below before pondering Hanover. This is classically a super fun fast descent but the street department has added a wrinkle. Our regulars have figured out how to bomb it safely, but if this is your first time or first time back, you may want to take it slow until you have it sorted.
After cruising back to the campus proper, wind your way up 5 floors of the garage and down 6. With the oval back in sight, burn all you have left in a race around the fountain before cruising back to the parking lot. Pack up to go home, exhausted but happy that you made it.
It doesn't get better than this!
For the detail nerds:
We meet just off Palm Drive at the Museum Way parking lot between Palm Drive and the Cantor Art Museum.
There is no valid street address but google maps will get you there

And so will the ICBM coordinates: 37°25'57.2"N 122°10'08.8"W
Gather on the corner nearest the Oval and Palm Drive. X marks the spot on the Google Map.

This is what we call the "dark side". It is the route we do most often. The important time is the elapsed time (near the bottom) 1h 40 minutes in this case.
Meet at 7:30pm, move out at 7:50pm.
Who's in?
