What we’re about
We are a group of riders that enjoy and are very passionate about mountain biking and all aspects of it. We believe in riding within a group for camaraderie, fun, knowledge and most importantly safety while out on the trails. Everyone that starts a ride with us will finish. Struggling or been off the bike for a while? No Worries!! The group who shows up to ride will always determine the pace. We will make sure everyone that shows up to ride has a fun and enjoyable time. We want to help you get better, faster and stronger! You get out of mountain biking as much or as little as you put into it!!
Many of our rides take place on the beautiful trails that Orange County has to offer. Additionally we are now starting to expand and offer rides in LA area, the Inland Empire and all the way down to San Diego County. Some of our favorite spots to ride are Fullerton Loop, Santiago Oaks, Whiting Ranch, Aliso and Woods Canyon and El Moro (Crystal Cove), Sycamore Canyon, Box Springs, Skyline, Chino Hills State Park, Big Bear and so on. In addition to this we occasionally will plan weekend getaways, as well as hit up trails that other places in So Cal and beyond have to offer.
So what are you waiting for? Come and judge for yourself. We encourage and welcome anyone and everyone to join us on our rides. Have ideas or want to ride somewhere? Drop us a line and we’ll make it happen.
"Sleep. Work. Eat. Ride and Repeat!"

See all- 🚴 07/04 FRI 8AM | SANTIAGO OAKS (ORANGE) | BLUE LEVEL 🚴Santiago Hills park, ORANGE, CA
Roll 8:15 am // Distance 10+ miles // Elevation 1,600+ feet
There is a little bit of everything at Santiago Oaks for the outdoor enthusiast with quite a few trails in a small area. Think mini-enduro park. You'll get a solid workout on the climbs and big smiles on the descents.
Lying peacefully in east Orange alongside Santiago Creek, the 1,269-acre Santiago Oaks Regional Park is a nature lover's paradise. This secluded refuge offers hikers, bikers, and equestrians the natural charm of mountain vistas, an orange grove, a meandering creek, and a mature forest of many different species of trees. Wildlife abounds and a series of interconnecting trails leads through shady groves and to a lookout featuring an awe-inspiring view of Orange and the surrounding foothills.
BLUE LEVEL RIDE
You have a strong understanding of shifting up and down through the gears. You can brake appropriately on descents and maintain a comfortable and sturdy stance on controlled climbs and descents. You are confident riding through a variety of technical features (roots, rocks, tight turns), although you are most comfortable at a slow and controlled pace.LINK TO AMTR RIDING LEVELS CHART

Roll 8:15am // Distance 14+ miles // Elevation 2,000+ feet
We are going mix things up for the 4th of July weekend. Instead of the usual 5x5 enduro run, we are going to mix in some XC for a ride down to Trestles Beach for the holiday weekend. We will of course, also hit some of the many ripping descents at the Weed Patch.
The San Clemente Singletracks, also known as “The Weed Patch” by old-timers (or "The Dog Park" by the new generation) is perhaps the best Enduro style riding in Orange County. The trails are challenging, and except for fire road access to utility lines, they are 100% single tracks.
Although there’s an official park map posted at each access point into the area detailing the known legal trails, you’ll likely come across twice as many "social trails". The locals are notorious for quickly building up new single tracks and other interesting features such as jump lines, wall rides, and if you are lucky, even a cougar in a tree.

LAGUNA - LAGUNA MEADOWS | BLUE LEVEL 🚴Sunset Trailhead - Mt Laguna, Mt Laguna, CA
Meet at 9:00, Roll at 9:15 AM // Distance 15 miles // Elevation 1,500+ feet
A fun loop near Noble Canyon that can be ridden by most strong beginners and more experienced riders with options to extend or shorten mileage and difficulty. We'll be riding at a social pace.
The referenced ride routes below are examples and may not be exactly what we do. We may do the Red-Tail Roost trail. We may do the upper section of Noble Canyon. We are NOT going all the way down Noble Canyon since that would require a coordinated shuttle. Basically, be prepared for about a three hour ride and at least 1,500 feed of climbing at high elevation. Bring plenty of water (3 liters recommended) and snacks.
