Green Valley Ride

If you're looking for a ride that has a long and very gradual climb, and a smooth fast return, this is the one. The first 23 miles begins with a VERY gradual ascent up Bouquet Canyon winding through equestrian ranches and hills. There are two climbs in this first half. I'd advise to remain single file as the road narrows and winds. The second half after the Green Valley store is a VERY fast and smooth descent back toward the start. Great opportunity for pace lines.
