Join us on SATURDAY JULY 25TH for our Gala ride through the redwood flow of EL CORTE DE MADERA CREEK PRESERVE (aka Skeggs)! This will be a great time as we weave through the trees on Sierra Morena, ride down on Tafoni trail, rip fast over Manzanita trail and then climb out on the aptly named Methuselah trail. This is a bomb down and climb out of the valley sort of ride. Should be an awesome time so come join us!
>>> This will be an INTERMEDIATE skill level (and above) mountain bike ride ONLY. Please NO beginner riders as the climbs are intense and long. Make sure you are comfortable with at least 2000 – 2500′ of climbing.

All rides are ‘no-drop’ rides (we won’t leave you behind or let you get lost) and are fully supported.
