In case anyone is interested - this Sunday, June 18 - FATHER'S DAY - my bud Wayne and I will be leading a Father's Day ride through Limestone Canyon. Time: 10 am. We consider this a beginner/family ride as children (age 7+) will be welcome to join. The ride will be slow and easy with many stops. I've found the key is to encourage the kids up to the Sinks and then they always enjoy the downhill back. Last Father's Day we had two little girls and the one was so sweet. She so wanted to please her father and she pushed and pushed although she took a bad fall and was very tired.
Anyway, if you are interested and want to join the ride, please pm me or send in your reservation to irvineranch@tnc.org.
The Ride starts at the Augustine Staging area which is off of Santiago Canyon at Hick's Haul Rd. The city, I think is Orange.
I do have a loaner bike (maybe 2 - size medium) in case someone wants to try mountain biking and doesn't have one.
