We are having two rides this weekend (one technically easy and hilly, one technical and hilly) and after we are hosting the Corba Volunteers who worked the Fat Tire Fest with a BBQ at the shop.    We encourage everyone to ride and meet the volunteers who work so hard on getting trails accessible to all of us riders.   Meet before 8:45 and leave about 9AM Sunday, November 22.

We are going to ride into Topanga State Park from the shop at 9AM for a 3ish hour ride.  We will ride up a couple hills and ride a few random single track trails in addtion to some fire roads.  Lots of chances to turn around for anyone who wants to ride fewer hours.   BBQ after, as usual.

Another Great BMC is ready to ride…….

BMC Fourstroke02

We are going to ride from the shop up Santa Maria to Mulholland to the Hub and out to Parker Mesa Overlook  at the Ocean and back to the shop via Trippet Ranch.   It is going to be all fire roads with some hills and one incredible view.  We hope some new riders come along and we really take our time for a longer ride with a very relaxing pace.     Expect 3-4 hours of riding.

Eric and Chris went to our friend Tom’s wedding in Saratoga NY last weekend.  (All three of us did a week long ride through Montana 8 years ago) and then we took Chris’s mom through Vermont and New Hampshire to Maine for a day.   Here are a couple photos.  It is sorta bike shop related…..
