Biking - Temescal to Fishermans Village 20 or 30 miles.
Details
It's too muddy for the mountains, so we're heading to the beach.
This is a 20 or 30 mile (your choice) beach ride. We'll start at Temescal Canyon and take the Marvin Braude bike trail south to Fishermans Village, with a small side trip to potentially see some very large boats. At this point, anyone wanting to do only 20 miles can relax with some coffee, ice cream or a snack. The 30 mile group will continue another 5 miles down the bike path and then start back. We'll likely stop somewhere for a snack and a drink before retuning to our start point.
The route is all paved with a total gain of about 167 feet over 20 miles. So, it's about as flat as a trail can be.
The only caveat to this one is that there always seems to be headwinds coming out of the Northwest during the last few miles.
Bring Along:
- Make sure you bring along a spare inner tube and have tires inflated for road riding.
