This is a one way route from Alum Rock to Hamilton.  You will then descend into Livermore via Mines Road.  Please note there are limited facilities, so please are sure to bring plenty of fuel and fluids.  You will have the same restroom opportunity as the shorter route, but once you descend over the top of Hamilton, there are no facilities until you reach the Junction.  Please come prepared.  ***This route will require car pooling so you can get back to your car after the ride.  If you are interested in this ride, please be sure to organize your return ride to your car.***
