Join in on a docent-led mountain bike ride through the Irvine Open Space Preserve. This is a moderate-paced mountain bike tour through the picturesque hills of Bommer and Shady Canyons with a combination of ranch roads and multiple intermediate level technical singletrack trails, and many steep climbs and descents. Over 2000 feet of accumulated climbing elevation is experienced on this route. Participants should be physically fit and possess above-average mountain biking skills. Mountain bike, helmet, and 32 oz. of water (minimum) required.

Please note, this is an intermediate ride. This ride features only a few, short rest stops, steep climbs and rocky descents. It requires above average fitness, and a mountain bike with a minimum of front suspension. If you are unsure of your abilities, please call first. There are beginner rides for those who are new to the sport which are offered as well.
