This is a great medium distance ride with a pavement section from Trabuco and Live Oak to the gate at Harding Truck Trail. Once at Harding, riders are in for a long fire road climb up to Four Corners and Maple Springs. From there riders turn right on the Main Divide and continue up and over Santiago Peak and down the back side. Continue on the Main Divide staying on it all the way to Trabuco Trail. For those riders with a little guts, they can take a short cut down Upper Holy Jim, a steep technical singletrack that meets up with the Main Divide again. At the bottom of Upper turn left on the Main Divide and continue all the way to Trabuco. Turn right on Trabuco and head all the way down to the parking area and start of the ride.
