What a great weekly night ride!!!!!

Over 30+ riders came out to enjoy the great weather and try out some bike lights from Light & Motion
For some it was their first night ride and they were not disappointed. We rode off into the Moon Rise and checked out the fantastic Ft. Ord trails. Thanks to BLM for adding the Chain Gang trail to our weekly ride route for this special occasion.
If you want to check out some pictures of the ride and even some videos go to: http://www.box.com/s/6p64kuo1bxvuas1h3xlm
What a way to finish the night riding season.
Don't forget, next week on Wednesday our regular ride is cancelled and we will be hosting the Twilight Ride at Laguna Seca. Riding starts around 5:30pm and there is a $10 fee, some of which goes back to MORCA. Come out and have some fun on the track including a coaster race from the top of the corkscrew.
