Description
The Gap is a classic ride on the SF Peninsula. This ride features the ‘short’ loop, ideal for after-work summer outings or quick morning workouts.
The Saratoga Gap singletrack is always fun, flowy and fast – be careful though for traffic, in particular during the weekends. The fireroads are actually a lot of fun too and the same is true for the trails around Peter’s Creek.
On your way back, you’ll climb up the Gap and will have the chance to take on interesting challenges such as clearing the root combo or the rocky switchback close to the end.
