    SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY!!!

    Where: Irvine Reg. Park
    When : Sunday 03/03 @ 3:45pm
    What : Lower trails around Irvine Park and into Santiago Oaks. We can start with the fun flat, flowing trails and see where it takes us! Depending on the group we may try more challenging trails.

    Meet-up inside Irvine Reg. Park ($5 parking fee). Enter the Main gate and make an immediate LEFT. Follow the road around and park in the FIRST PARKING LOT ON THE RIGHT (you will be parked by a playground) I will be in a GRAY SATURN with a hitch rack... If you're planning to go, PM me if you have any questions or want my contact info just-in-case.

    I hope to see some of you out there! :wave:

    Dave & Pat, it was nide meeting you and your families today! Brian, good seeing you and your daughter again! Hope everyone had a good time out there this afternoon, I know we did and must say that watching the 1st timers on the dirt was AWESOME!!! Some started out more timid than others but in the end, EVERYONE wanted to keep pedaling and somehow, had energy left for the playground! :?: (wish I still had that youthful energy) Jonathan is extremely eager to do it again soon. I'll post video and pictures in a bit (excuse my footage, it's my 1st ride with a gopro)

    Thanks for coming out to ride with us today, it was a really good time.

    -Kevin & Jonathan.

    Great ride today. Nice to meet some new ride families. My daughter, Alex, had a great time and seemed to gain a lot of confidence just on the ride. She's bugging me to go riding again soon.
    Dave and Alex
