Description

Henry W. Coe State Park

A mid-week Coe ride on a beautiful day initiated by my friend, Mei:

“Dear fellow Coe’rs, I’m one Coe ride away from calling whether this is “the Bike”. I got my test bike today, a Titus FTM carbon. It looks like rain on Saturday, so I’m thinking about taking one day off to hit Coe. Tentative plan is Thursday, but can do Friday or maybe Wednesday.”

Mei’s report: MTB COE!!!

And here: mtbr thread Current Coe Conditions? Perfect! As of Thursday, Feb 18, 2010

The slackers who showed up; Eric, Greg, and Mei (on the test bike):

Splish-splash:

Mei stood in 12” of water and said that her gortex socks kept her feet dry:

Greg:

Artsy:

Mei schools us on riding the skinny over the Gilroy Hot Springs bridge:

Eric can’t believe how far Mei goes on this attempt:

Start at Hunting Hollow » Gilroy Hot Springs Road » Coit Road » Spike Jones Trail » Timm Trail » Coit Road » Anza Trail » Jackson Trail » Elderberry Spring Trail (lower) » Rock Tower Trail » Elderberry Spring Trail (upper) » Jackson Road » Wasno Road » Bovine Slalom » Cåttle Mäster Trail » Kelly Lake » Coit Road » Kelly Cabin Canyon Trail » Cross Canyon Trail » Coit Springs Trail » Grapevine Trail » Anza Trail » Coit Road » to Coyote Creek entrance » Gilroy Hot Springs Road » to Hunting Hollow parking

From cyclometer (Specialized TurboPro)

Total time = 6:41
Moving time = 4:05
Miles = 23.91
Footies = 4,396’

GPX from GlobalSat DG-100 Data Logger. DEC elevations were added afterward so the total elevation gain is exaggerated but the profile is a good representation of the route.
