I did a bike-and hike across the slide not long after it first occurred, but 
the barriers they’ve installed now are pretty serious and it’s clear they don’t 
want people out there.

Here’s a video I took on the freeway (both hands firmly on the handlebars):

Re: [RBW] Grant's Mountain 8-26-24

2024-09-01 Thread Jeff B

I figured that was the case. I'm not sure how much trust I would put in 
riding on the shoulder there, having seen many shenanigans by drivers along 
680. However you are a testament to the fact that it's possible.  My hope 
is that there is a "deer path" worn by people bypassing the construction in 
the fields to the west of the road, but even that seems risky because 
security seems to be tight in the construction zone.

It is a huge shame that they don't have an area at least open for 
pedestrians and cyclists through that area. It effectively cuts off that 
segment of people from getting between Cordelia and Benicia without taking 
a detour through north Vallejo (12 vs 18 miles). News reports even say 
construction might not start for a few months into 2025.

Thanks for the info,
Jeff B

Getting there involves riding on the freeway shoulder for about two miles. It’s legal in CA when there is no alternative to the freeway, which is the case with the closure of Lopes Road.

[RBW] Grant's Mountain

2024-04-24 Thread 'Eric Norris' via RBW Owners Bunch

Not taken today—I shot this in 2018 while flying home for a work trip to 
Southern California. Grant’s Mountain here looks more like Mt Doom than Mt 
Diablo.

Mt. Diablo, on a cold morning today, peeking out from under the clouds. Rain is 
coming tomorrow, but today was just cold and cloudy.
