*Century key workout

Century Program • HMB

~ What to expect ~

We’re going to mix it up a bit this weekend and go south! This week we're focusing on keeping mileage high with some new roads. The route takes us up and down HWY 1, which can have some consistent winds, so learn how to work with others and draft and take turns.

Starting from the Conservatory of Flowers, we'll roll through the park and then head down Great Highway towards HWY 1 via Skyline. We'll pass through Pacifica before tackling the Devil's Slide and continue onwards to Half Moon Bay. Ride single file on HWY 1 and be on the lookout constantly as the car road speed is quite high. After a loop through the hills on Lobitos Creek, we'll head back the way we came. Save your legs since there's a kicker of a climb towards the end and you don't want to have burnt all your matches by then.
