EBIKE RIDE NEAR FIGUEROA MTN. TO VIEW THE WILD FLOWERS AND CELEBRATE CINCO DE MAYO AFTERWARDS
By May 5th, the area around Figueroa Mountain should be in full bloom since the higher elevations bloom later than the lower valleys. If not, the views along the way will make for a great ride. Half the route will have us on a single track paved road, while the other half will be on a dirt forest service road. If the dirt road is in bad shape, we’ll add more single lane paved road instead.
The goal is to make it to a point near Zaca Peak, but our batteries will determine just how far we go.
Make sure you bring along a spare inner tube and have your tires inflated before arriving.
