Fun Bike Ride to Valle de Oro! 6/12/2026 8:00 AM- 12:00 *RSVP at: https://www.riograndesierraclub.org/calendar/ by June 9th, end of day.* Let's ride to Valle de Oro to see what the birds and land are looking like this season. This ride is on a protected trail the entire way, approximately 10 miles round trip, mostly flat terrain. We will hit the Refuge around 9, to grab water, rest rooms, and poke around the visitor center. This refuge has an interesting history and is only one of few Urban Wildlife Areas. Depending on time and energy, we might have time to grab a snack after the ride at a classic spot called Bike 'n Coffee. Live music playing most days too!This ride will include a review of safe behavior for group rides. We are not going to be riding fast, but hopefully steady, so everyone can feel comfortable. This will be a paved and protected trail. Things to bring: All riders must wear a helmet!Your bike should be in good riding order, with road or wider trail tires.Please also bring water, a snack, the materials to fix a flat if needed (every bike is different) and a small pack for additional clothing, as well as some money if we add on the post ride snack. *RSVP at: https://www.riograndesierraclub.org/calendar/ by June 9th, end of day.*Young adults age 12 and up are invited with a supervising adult.
