Ali had been wanting to ride the Los Altos Hills dirt for a while and wasn't able to make it to the TdC x TdPSL stage when we did this so we did it again. This time I missed the same turns as last time but we went back instead of skipping. Ali also showed me this little extra bit of Shoup Park we didn't do last time. It was only a couple weeks ago but we could already tell there was less light. Spots that were sunny last time, were still in shade today. And even though it was the same temperature-wise, it felt colder. Last time, I came so close to running over a squirrel that turned around in front of me at the very last moment. This time, in Shoup Park, I came even closer with the squirrel turning around so late, it booped me on the foot. We came across some of the largest turkeys I've ever seen on a ride. Ali wasn't impressed. :) For some reason traffic was much worse making intersection crossings that were easy last time, hard. The flipside, there were less people on the trails. On the last trail, Packard Trail, there were quite a few people walking their dogs last time but this time, I was able to send it with no one around. Definitely my favorite trail on the route.
