We are going a little longer and climbing a little more than usual.  Leaving Mike’s Bikes in Los Gatos we head to Saratoga and then climb highway 9 to Skyline.  Left on Skyline to Bear Creek, right on Summit Rd.  We will take the Mtn Charlie shortcut to Old Santa Cruz Highway and then the gravel Los Gatos Creek trail back to Mike’s Bikes.
