Join us for a morning of riding along and learning with staff from SVBC, <a href="https://www.sjcccs.org/about" title="https://www.sjcccs.org/about" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">SJ Conservation Corps</a>, and <a href="https://www.keepcoyotecreekbeautiful.org/" title="https://www.keepcoyotecreekbeautiful.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful</a>.
