JRA Sycamore Cyn!

Meet at the dirt parking area at the end of Wendy Rd and Potrero Rd. This is about an 18-mile ride with some extended climbing. Expect to be pedaling 2-2.5 hours. While this is not a technically challenging ride, it is very demanding for a beginner or those not used to riding long distances. Ideally, we will take minimal rest stops.

Route: Drop into Sycamore Canyon from Newbury Park side. Right on Ranch Center, left on Sin Nombre, connect to Two Foxes. Let’s climb Backbone, aka Wood Vista Trail, and then descend Guadalasca Trail. From there we’ll head out back to the cars- various routes to choose from.

You must always come prepared with a bike in good working condition, water, a helmet, as well as any protective gear you deem necessary. It’s a good idea to bring something to eat if you haven’t eaten in the last few hours. You should bring an extra innertube in case of a flat.

We always host “no drop” rides. This means we won’t leave anyone behind. We always welcome new riders however we do recommend that you have good bike handling skills and appropriate fitness for the ride distance.

Bicycling has its inherent risks, including serious injury or death. Your participation is an acknowledgment of those risks and an assumption of liability. Riding at night requires sufficient lighting. We recommend a light with a minimum of 1000 lumens.
