But don't look at a map and say, "Oh Fish Rock road looks like a good
way to get over to Hwy 128 from the coast", unless you are prepared for
one of the hardest unpaved steep up-and-down days of riding ever. I had
a bad map and didn't realize it would be dirt. It turned out to be a

Beth,
Mendocino is one of the nicest place to ride. You can start from
Mendocino proper. Go out of town and go inland on Ukiah Comptche Road.
Take that all the way to Comptche. Take Flynn Creek Road toward HWY
128. Come back to HWY 1 on HWY 128, then ride up the coast back up to
Mendocino. $40 mi

An interesting and challenging route would be to start in Ukiah and
head out Orr Springs to the coast, then down past Mendocino and Albion
to Hwy 128. Take that back to Hwy 253 and climb back over the
mountains to Ukiah. That would be a nice day's ride.

Interesting area. I'd like to loop Orr Springs with Low Gap but after
having looked - it may be a bit ambitious given that it totals 45
miles and 6500' of climbing. Out on dirt, back on pavement? Is
Running Springs Ranch Road a public road? Is it paved?

Looks like Orr Springs Road alright. Eric, did you get to the descend
down to Orr Hot Spring resort and Montgomery Woods yet?

Nice --- bike, route, and leg musculature. What is that handlebar bag? And
what is the headlight? What gear do you use for an extended 10% grade? What
is all that green stuff?
