Day 5 – 2025 Ride to Santa Cruz

Today was a day off the bike, hanging out in Oakland.

This morning we drove to Lake Del Valle with Craig’s paddle boards. It was my first paddle board experience. It was too windy for me to really learn so it was a short time on the water. Craig went for a slightly longer paddle. I will give paddle boarding another try at some point.

We are going to cook some salmon tonight for dinner and hang out by the pool afterwards. Tomorrow morning I’ll head out down to Santa Cruz. It’s about an hour and a half.

  1. Hi Keith,

    Have a great final leg of your trip! When I was at Stanford in the late 60s, I often rode my Yamaha down to Santa Cruz on beautiful SR 9, through Ben Lomond. I tried to stay off Hwy 17, which always filled me with dread.
