Crashes and Close Calls of 2024: Santa Ana Mountain Biking

Just a crash compilation from various mountain bike rides in the Santa Anas in 2024. There's Lone Oak, Wardlow, Joplin, Chiquito, Los Pinos and even the Luge. Do you recognize your favorite trail?

Well, that was certainly action packed! Where is that section you were going down that had all those boulders on it? That was crazy! We are certainly lucky to have good writing so close to our homes :-)

Yes we are super lucky for sure! The bouldery trail is Chiquito. That day I was attempting to do the San Juan - Chiquito - Los Pinos loop and throw in a Santiago Peak summit. I ended up making it to Bear Spring (right before you drop into Holy Jim), passed on the Santiago summit push. I was so wet that whole cold day! Here is part one of that ride Biking Chiquito Trail: Wet and Bushy

That SoCal grip!!! Man, Wardlow will always just flip ya before you know what's going on 😲

[@darshahlu]

Yeah you know it!!

Ha…I brushed the middle 2 months ago but you’re brushing it with your face 😂

[@darshahlu]

Use what you got ! Face brushing not very effective at clearing the trail, though.
