    Bike Touring in Paradise

    Maui, New Zealand, So. America

    Kiwi sunrise

    Orange County’s most renown bicycle tourist, Rob Templin, inspires people to expand their horizons. We invite you be inspired, 6:PM, Thursday, Aug. 26, as Rob shares how anyone, young or old, can roll into their own personal adventure.

    Maui tradewinds

    Dazzling views, the sounds and smells of nature surround you as your bike rounds bend after bend along a country road. But choosing the right road, selecting the perfect daily destination is key to a memorable tour.

    Planning your own trip or joining one of Rob’s Second Summer groups, we’ll share the delights which only travel by bicycle can reveal. Along the way he’ll share insights into the bicycle cultures of the countries he visits, where bicycles are a more accepted mode of travel.

    The evening is FREE, but seating is limited, so please RSVP, 949 492 5737, or e-mail us.
