Description
Fun ride in Santa Teresa park: up Rocky Ridge (a nice technical climbing challenge), then the short out-and-back to Coyote Peak, and back down Rocky Ridge. Lotsa fun, this last one, and if you’re on a hardtail like I was, a good technical challenge.
We wrapped up the ride along Stiles Ranch trail, the other highlight of Santa Teresa, even though it has been groomed last year.
The wildflower showing was not that impressive compared to last year(s) but perhaps it was still a bit early. Some poppy fields here and there (see pics).
