Hey Trailheads!
It's time once again for our Fall Dirt Demo! Once again, we have reserved
Santa Teresa and oh, let's say about 125 bikes to ride. No joke, not only
will we have our fleet of bikes, but our awesome suppliers are sending
rigs full of bikes to bolster the selection making it much easier to get
a great bike to ride! If you have not been to one of our Dirt Demo Events,
now is the time! Here's the list of badass bikes from farthest to nearest...

TRAILS
The trails here are awesome! In fact, I just wrote an article for FreeHubMag.com
about them which will be published later this month! Expect to climb some
steep stuff if you want to ride the best trails. However, none of the
climbs are very long. The biggest climb is one mile to the top of Coyote
Peak. You can find all kinds of trails here, and it's all really close
to base camp. Easy, intermediate and advanced trails can be found and
nothing will take all day. In fact, most loops are about 45 minutes, so
plan to ride more than one bike. That is the point afterall.
We will have our BBQ fired up mid day and our friend Dan from Bassian
Farms will be supplying awesome meats. My wife Karen will be the amazing
food coordinator, without which, you all would be eating energy bars.
DIRECTIONS
Santa Teresa County Park is located at the southern end of the Santa Teresa
Hills. From Santa Clara Valley, take US 101 or Highway 85 to the Bernal
Road exit. Proceed west 1.3 miles on Bernal Road and cross Santa Teresa
Boulevard toward the Santa Teresa Hills. Bernal Road continues past the
park's Santa Teresa Golf Club, winding up into the hills. Turn left into
the only left off of Bernal once you've passed the golf course and climbed
into the hills. Once you do, you will not be able to miss it. From Trail
Head Cyclery, this drive is about 20-25 minutes.
Bring Basic Riding Gear:
Helmet, gloves, shoes for riding, your pedals if you can bring them, pack
or saddle bag with a spare tube, tire levers, allen wrenches and a pump.
Cool, that should cover about everything. Feel free to call the shop with
any questions.
See you there!
