Summary:
It was a cool experience. We saw wild turkey's and some bunnies. The weather was perfect for us. Only wish it was longer like maybe 20 miles all together instead of 10 miles.

Summary:
OMG!!!!! Fantastic!!!! About one hour/10 miles of off the beaten trail fun on the defunct interurban train line my father took in the 1930's! Great view of the Sacramento River and farmland NOBODY will ever see from local roads. We saw wild turkeys, rabbits, and beautiful green farms. We toured with two other couples and the lead and rear crew/bikes. Our hostesses were safety conscious and very pleasant. Easy to pedal by leg or electric assist. Glad I wore shades with contact lenses, little windy. Wear comfy clothes. Careful with phone photos, gets bumpy...there goes the phone! Saw a lot of water bottles on the track. Ha! Not inexpensive, but well worth it as a treat. Jessica was a great hostess! Would totally recommend this group!
