Ride Report: Bonelli Park
This Saturday we decided to hit up Bonelli Park in San Dimas, Ca. because Priscilla has a race there next weekend. We sent out our usual email invitation and one of our readers, Joe Solancho decided to join us.
On the Ralph scale, Moe and I both agree that this trail is definitely at least 2 Ralphs on the hurl scale.
We were treated to some nice green scenery and some water/mud, which made the ride even more fun! Here’s Priscilla sporting her KHS jersey, and I with my PricePoint.com jersey. I think KHS should sponsor her just based on her looks! But then again she is a contender out on the trails so don’t let her looks deceive you, she’ll probably toast you on the climbs.
Here’s a great Ralph section where even Priscilla had to hike a bike.
Pretty yellow flowers…
Yet another Ralph section, there’s Joe climbing and Priscilla already up ahead.
How he looks is what a single speed does to you on tough trail.
Great times at Bonelli with our new friend Joe. I tried to video as much as I could of the ride, so watch it below.
Nice video. Looks like you guys had a fun time.
Hey cool video. I’m a newbe in the Costa Mesa area & looking to meet some cool people to ride with maybe get into xc racing get back with me I would like to get a sunday ride going.
Thanks Eric
hi Eric,
There’s actually a race going on at Bonelli Park this weekend. The beginners start at 10 am or something like that. Priscilla, Joe, Moe and 2 of our sponsored riders will be racing.
Look for us underneath the Redline Tent.
Thanks,
RL

Hey Patrick,
We met a while back during one of the Jax Fullerton morning rides at the Loop. I saw that video you took of Scott falling on that ladder thing.

There’s no walking in mountain biking. LOL
