It was another awesome weekend in Santa Cruz, California. The kids and I went mountain biking from the UC Santa Cruz fire roads and into Wilder Ranch State Park, where I made a wrong turn so we ended up halfway to Davenport, California when we popped out on Highway 1. We rode a couple of miles east (nominally south) to the Wilder Ranch visitor center, then continued via bike paths and surface streets into downtown Santa Cruz where we enjoyed a nice snack at the Jamba Juice on Pacific Avenue. That photo is my daughter and I on the bike path into Santa Cruz from Wilder Ranch.
