Default Bikes & Beers

Hey all, it's the, non-sponsored, non-lead, most popular non-event of the year...

The Path Bike Shop Presents
Bikes and Beers!

What: An annual tradition of riding and socializing
When: Sunday, May 18th at 8:30am
Where: The Path Bike Shop parking lot

Rough agenda: Meet at The Path at 8:30 for coffee. We’ll rally in the parking lot ‘till around 9:30, and then ride! The ride ends at The Tustin Brewery where we will hang out on the patio, and they will give us a deal on beer and pizza.

Disclaimer: Mountain biking can be dangerous. The Path, its ownership, staff, and affiliates are not responsible for you on this ride. This is a casual event. There will be no official ride leaders or course marshals. The course is not marked, nor is it specific. There are many variations, and some people will do extra loops. If you do not know the area, ride with someone who does. If you need to be introduced to someone who knows the area, and/or who will be riding at your level, just let us know.

The general course:
Exit the Path parking lot, and make a right on B Street. Make a right on Irvine BLVD, a left on Tustin Ranch Road, and another left on Pioneer Parkway. Follow the horse trails to the Peters Canyon South entrance. Ride through Peters Canyon, up Jamboree Rd., to Santiago Oaks. The, it’s up the three hills known as um….you know…female dogs…Down towards Irvine Park, and back to The Tustin Brewery.

Note: It is recommended that you ride to this event; however, if you are driving, it is a good idea to leave your car with a change of clothes in the parking lot of The Tustin Brewery before the ride.

All the guys love Brad (read Jeff you are same sex oriented), but he is anti social. Maybe we can get him to come out this time.

Can I just show up to Tustin Brew Co and partake in the food and beer? I'm at least a few weeks away from putting a leg over a bike.

Most of the ride is pavement getting to and from The Oaks. Some chose not to ride the Oaks or not to go up The Bitches, walk The Bitches not that long of a hill.

Awesome. I will be the clean and non-smelly 6 foot tall guy with brown hair. Perhaps my mullet wig will make an appearance.
