At the end of the ride you will be able to ride into Bommer Canyon & chill out under the trees... |
After you've had enough of the bike, you can coast down the canyon to your car, clean up & change in the bathrooms at Turtle Rock Park before driving back up into Bommer - we will enjoy the unique remoteness of Bommer Canyon Cattle Camp; Away from the modern urban road experience, a real step back in time to what Orange County was like even before James Irvine rode his big wheeled bone-shaker bicycle through his daddy's new land, on the way from San Francisco to San Diego over 100 years ago... Massage Therapist Carola will be on hand to sooth sore muscles and share her healing touch... We will have the cattle camp's barbecue pit going; serving up a feast under the direction of Penny Poorman and Tommie Kozlov who will try to fill the recently empty saddle of Chef & Vice President Doug Phillips Lounge in the shade of ancient sycamores, toss a few horse shoes, play some volleyball, & cosmic wimpout will be there as always... After dinner we will enjoy the evening breezes of dusk as we sit about a cheery camp fire for 'somores' with dear friends, old & new And if you are interested in joining the team planning and hosting the event, please contact Bill! mailto:DataBase@BikeIrvine.org or phone: 714/ 997-0921 Please register before the 2nd Monday in June (June 14) so we have enough food!
