Bike - May 22, 2010 - Saturday’s Team K-Man bike ride will be the Union Loop, taking us to Paso Robles via Geneseo and Union Roads, then returning by the route of your choice. Here are the details:
Meet at 8 a.m. in the parking lot of K-Man Cycle and Run in Atascadero. Ride south on El Camino Real, turn left on Viejo Camino to Halcon. Turn left and then left again on Rocky Canyon Road. Turn right on Highway 41, then turn left on Homestead, and turn right on South El Pomar, up the Chicago Grade to Pomar Junction, where we’ll turn right on El Pomar. At Cripple Creek, we will turn left. Next is a right turn on Creston Road, followed by a left turn onto Geneseo. We will then follow Geneseo for a few miles, and bear right where it branches off from Linne. We will stay on Geneseo through the climb, all the way to its intersection with Union, where we will turn left. We will then follow Union through the intersection with Golden Hill Road, and remain on Union as it winds its way through eastern Paso Robles until it comes out at 13th Street, where we will bear right and cross the 13th Street Bridge. We will take a break for refreshments at the Amsterdam coffee shop on 13th between Park and Spring.

From Amsterdam’s in Paso Robles we can choose for ourselves how to get back to Atascadero. The options include Adelaida, Peachy Canyon, River Road and Vine Street, depending on how long a ride each of us wants to do.
