This Saturday, September 10, there will be a challenging, docent-led, 5-hour mountain bike ride in the Irvine Ranch Open Space for very experienced off-road riders in excellent cardio shape.

Participants will climb State Spur to Cathedral Rock before riding into Fremont Canyon while passing some of Orange County’s most spectacular geological formations. The 25-mile ride continues out to Mini-Moab and then over to Sierra Peak, passing the Tecate Cypress forest, then past Sierra Peak, and over to the last descent down through historic Black Star Canyon.

The ride is from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., starting at the Red Rocks Staging Area in the Fremont Canyon Nature Preserve. The elevation change is 4,500 feet.

Pre-registration is required – no walk-up registrations allowed.
