    February 25th, 26th & 27th
    A Friday & Saturday & leave Sunday
    Sycamore Canyon State Park/Pt. Mugu
    We had a huge turn out in 2009 and had a great time. It was a tad warm though.:)
    Last year was cancelled due to rain. Too bad but that's the way it goes in SoCal. :?:
    I want to set it up again as an overnight camping trip to Sycamore canyon in Ventura.

    This is a great park and has quite a bit to offer

    It's right on the Ocean
    It's extremely kid and family friendly
    It has a huge variety of very fun trails
    It has easy single track for the kids
    It has harder and more technical trails for the big kids
    It has hiking
    It has showers
    It has a trail system that allows you to do 5 miles or 30
    It has incredible road riding off PCH
    It has surf fishing
    It has surfing

    I thought it would be fun to put this together and get the STR gang over to the Santa Monica mountains. You guys will love it!! It'll be fun to get the group together for this and just ride and have some fun!
    It's a very popular place so if you want to do this, consider reserving soon!
    I'm in!
    Think about it!
    Rain will cancel!

    It's under calender, RSVP Feb. 26th

    I'll post up the sites I thought were nice in a a day or two.
    I forgot to mention that you can make a reservation but then you get assigned a spot when you arrive.
    I and some others got there early the first year and the ranger accommodated us and the area we wanted.
    It worked out pretty well!
    Maybe when making a reservation you say "Liz's hot party" or STR group!
