A Good Bike Story

As I started up the Stiles Ranch trail today at Santa Teresa County Park, I found large group of volunteers doing trail repair. It turns out that this effort was sponsored by ROMP (Responsible Organized Mountain Pedalers).

I spoke briefly to a fellow who described himself as president of ROMP. Among other things I told him that my very first mountain bike ride (up to the ridge above Lexington Reservoir) was with ROMP many years ago, back when the group had just formed.

It looks like almost all trails – including, perhaps regretably, single-track – are open to cyclists at this park.
