Cycling in Alum Rock Park

This was the first GPS track to get this started and is from one of my favorite routes - Alum Rock Park in San Jose. I do this ride from my house so it's actually a couple miles longer ride each way for me than shown. But part of the point of this ride is a good workout so that's OK. The track here begins at Penitencia Creek Park on Jackson Avenue. The route shown is 17.29km (10.74 miles) round trip with an elevation gain of around 800 feet by the end of the trail in the hills. According to the GPS telemetry, this part of the route took me about an hour and 10 minutes including two breaks.
