EBIKE RIDE ALONG ALISO CREEK – LAGUNA NIGUEL TO COOKS CORNER
“The Aliso Creek Regional Riding and Hiking Trail is a well-maintained class 1 bikeway and soft recreational trail extending from foothills of Orange County to the boundary of Laguna Beach. The continuous fifteen miles of asphalt bikeway designed for multi-use travel through five south county cities. The soft trail mirrors the asphalt bikeway path on either side of the Aliso Creek traveling from the mountains to the sea. The ten-foot wide bikeway was originally designed in the 1970’s when the old El Toro Road was abandoned during the construction of a much larger and safer road.” NRT Database by American Trails

I’ve been talking about doing this bike path for over a year now and now that DaveR is biking again, it’s time to do it.
