Ragle Ranch Regional Park to Graton via Regional Trails

We reached the park in Sebastopol  around 10:30am.  We found a parking space close to the plastic rest room.  That was convenient.  There were many people and children in the park already.

 After warming up in the park we got out to Covert Ln, taking the bike friendly Pleasant Hill Av.
This is Willard Libby Park on Pleasant Hill Ave.

Then we couldn't find the path to Washington Av, so we took Valentine Av to Murphy Av towards to Healdsburg Av, there was a crosswalk luckily so we could walk across the busy street, found Dufranc Av to connect with the West county Trail, instead of riding from the beginning of the Trail and passing the busy intersection.  I was glad we did it that way, I still need an easier route to take.

We loved the West County Regional Trail, it's so quiet and pretty.

Some part of the trail is running next to Gravenstein HwyN.  So wide and paved nicely.

 
At the end of the trail, as the sign recommends, we walked to cross Occidental Rd, and rode on the street for a while to the next entrance of the trail.  Here is the sign.

 
Vegetation around the trail was so nice.

We came to Graton Rd; if you turn left, you will get into another regional trail to the North which we'd like to try another time.

We turned right,  stopped to check the map, yes!  the challenging up slope was ahead!

We did well and turned right on Gravenstein Hwy N which also is not a Bike friendly road like last one, but drivers were nice so we could go through to the next right turn Peachland Av.  We knew it's going to be another challenging up slope, and we breathed well and got done.  The view was so beautiful, but the humble road was very bumpy.  Unfortunately neither of us took a picture.


After crossing Occidental Rd, Barlow Ln was standing to the sky, we enjoyed the steep slope; just kidding.  Seriously breathing rhythmically and continuously we made it. whew..

Then, we saw a beautiful grape field and apple orchard on the other side.  The air was fresh and the smell were nice.

Turned left to Mill Station Rd which was an up slope a little and down, finally rode onto the last road, Ragle Rd, and returned safely.  We enjoyed riding in the park for a while and back to the car.

The wind in Ragle Ranch Park was cool and very comfortable so that I wanted to stay more, but we had to drive back before we totally conked out. 
Distance: 10.2 miles, Av Speed: 7.2mph, Mx speed:  20.2mph, 
Time: 1h 23 min.

He really liked the route I planned and enjoyed very much, in addition he appreciated my hard work of planning, so I was really happy today!!

I hope my calf muscle pain will go away soon.  My fingers' nerve pains are getting better quite a bit now.
