I'd heard about Sierra Road for a long time, at least since the first Tour of California, but I'd never actually tried riding it before. On Sunday, I decided to give it a shot.
I've included a copy of the route below. The road is a bit steeper than Page Mill and basically takes you from the valley to the top of the ridge, at a very similar height to Mission Peak. It is a great road the whole way, much better than Page Mill or Old La Honda. It is mostly exposed, though, so, while it was great on a late summer evening, the peninsula roads would probably be better during the heat of the day.
Very highly recommended.
BTW, the MapMyRide elevation button actually does work now and will give you a reasonably good graph of the elevation gain/loss.

Random updates on planning/training for the Tahoe Sierra Century in September and for a three-week trip down the length of the Rhine river in October.
