Description

Road ride from downtown Palo Alto to the summit of Kings Mountain and back.

This was on a rainy saturday morning, with increasing rains in the cloud covered hills. The forest was very damp, which made it look really cool, and there weren’t many people out there. Did get soaking wet though, but I dried out once back in the valley, as the rain had stopped by then.
