The way points of this bicycle route:
start here
left turn - early in the morning, it's okay ...
watch for people backing out of their drives
small climb
this is of dubious legality, but you are on a bike ...
snakes uphill - not long or high but it does wake you up
more or less at the top of the rise
usually a long wait for the light (longer if there are no cars to trigger it for you)
this light gets you every time & there's a little gut-puller of a hill immediately after
another annoying light - worse going north (the other way)
it's another pointless street name change
santa cruz becomes alpine. another long pointless stoplight
a wonderfully dangerous intersection - middle lane turns left or goes straight: which with the arsehole in the huge suv choose?
a small rise just to keep you working
another pointless & annoying stoplight
typically a nice long wait for this damned stoplight
another pointless name change
another long wait - best to deak around this light by pretending to go through to oak hill but instead turning left then right back onto foothill. that can save you 5min. doesn't work going the other way ...
