Beginner Mountain Bike Ride in Weir Canyon

If you are a beginner rider and perhaps have just completed one of the IRC mountain biking clinics or just want an enjoyable and relaxed ride in the Orange County wilderness, then join us on this docent led, group mountain bike ride in Weir Canyon Nature Preserve.

This ride starts in Irvine Regional Park but the vast majority of the ride is in the oak woodlands that make up the majority of Weir Canyon. The ride is about 7.5 miles long and climbs slightly with no significant climbs but does roll up and down throughout the route and has a total elevation gain of under 400 feet.
