A brilliant day for mountain biking near the coast in Wilder Ranch State Park. We got in a four hour tour around the park: Engelsmann to Wild Boar Trail and Old Cabin Trail, over and down and around Enchanted Loop, up to the Eucalyptus grove and then, after a break, on up Chinquapin Trail to the northern border of the park, back down to the intersection of Enchanted Loop to do Twin Oaks Trail around and then finally up again on Wilder Ridge Trail to finish with Zane Gray Trail. Woo-hoo!
