Group Rides
Group recreational rides are a fun and social way to experience a variety of trails in Los Angeles and Ventura counties, and beyond. Mountain bike rides for all skill levels are organized by CORBA member clubs and are led by experienced and knowledgeable guides.
Weekend mountain biking destinations include in the Santa Monica Mountains, Palos Verdes, the San Gabriel Mountains, Verdugo’s, Tehachapi’s, Simi Valley, and Orange County. Most rides are a short drive from Los Angeles and Ventura communities. Also included are weekday and evening rides throughout the area, and extended trips to locations throughout the Western USA.
For beginning mountain bikers, we include dedicated novice rides in our schedule from time-to-time. We also recommend taking advantage of our free mountain biking skills clinics.
How it Works
CORBA’s calendar is a resource for mountain bikers of all levels to find groups to ride with and explore the area’s trails. Experienced and skilled guides lead the rides in variety of locations and terrain types, and educate riders about trail etiquette and appropriate trail use, and cross country biking skills.
The CORBA calendar provides a central location for the following local clubs to post rides:
- Girlz Gone Riding (GGR)
- North Ranch Mountain Bikers (NRMB)
- Over the Bars Mountain Bike Club (OTB)
Each ride on CORBA’s calendar shows the meeting time, location and directions, and information about the ride routes, terrain, skill and endurance levels, and other pertinent information. Note that different clubs have different systems of rating the skill and endurance levels for each trail.
