May 'Beginner-Focused' Group Ride with the SD Trek Women's MTB Team
Details
Join us Saturday, May 16th, as we head to the Laguna Mountains in celebration of California Mountain Biking Month!
*NO E-BIKES ALLOWED ON THIS RIDE!! Unfortunately, e-bikes are prohibited in the Mt. Laguna Recreation Area.
**AN ADVENTURE PASS IS NEEDED TO PARK BY THE TRAILHEAD**
(You can purchase one at various locations throughout San Diego or at the trailhead. Price is $5/day or $30/annual pass.)
Ride Info: We will start at the Sunset Trailhead off of Sunrise Highway. While all routes are subject to change, planned ride descriptions are for the Green Group to head around the Laguna Meadows Loop for approximately 9 miles. Rolling single track, a few rocky features, and lots of beautiful scenery. The Blue Group will head to the observatory via climbing up Chico and Old County Rd, then Los Gatos downhill to Laguna Meadow Loop for a 12 mile ride with 1200 ft of climbing.
To help reduce trail impacts and promote safety and instruction, we are limiting ride numbers to 30 participants.
(As a reminder, this is a ‘beginner-focused’ ride, meaning we will no longer have our advanced ride option. Rides will now include a beginner and intermediate option only. We’d still love to see those smiling ‘advanced rider’ faces, but be prepared to ride slower/shorter/less technical routes)
The ride starts PROMPTLY at 8:30am. Please arrive early to allow time for bike set up, signing the waiver, chatting w/ your buddies, etc! This ride will last approximately 2 to 2.5 hours.
What to bring:
- Mountain Bike in good working order
- Every rider MUST have a helmet
- Water bottle/snacks
- Anything else you need for a safe and comfortable ride
- An awesome attitude!
Directions: From I-8 East, Exit Sunrise Highway/Old Hwy 80. Head North (left). Continue on Sunrise Highway for 5.5 miles. Park on either side of the street.
