Lake Hodges ~ Trail Ride

Bring your young riders out to explore the area and trails around Lake Hodges! This is an intermediate Sprockids Adventure open to riders age 8+. Our guides will start at the historic Sike’s Adobe and ride into the surrounding trail system exploring the area’s vast fun and flowy trails and open space areas.

This is the “Adventure in Your Own Backyard Adventure Ride.” From Sike’s we will push off west along the North Shore Trail System and make our way out to the Lake Hodges Dam. It’s a mix of fun, flowy trails and a few technical bits all with exceptional views and good times. Total mileage will be about 16 miles and under 1,000 ft elevation gain.

Riders suitable for this adventure will have a reasonable grasp of bike-body balance techniques, steering and cornering as well as braking. They should overall be confident handling their bike on intermediate trails. We will be providing lunch after the ride, please pack trail snacks.

This event is departing from the parking area near Sike’s Adobe.
