Ride Description: This relaxed ride targets the 49er Country Club, the only club where Jack Nicklaus played competitively in Tucson (in 1963 and 1964). Jack did not make the cut in 1963 but atoned for it later.

We will ride 3 different loops (about 4 miles) through the Country Club on perfect pavement, then have a rest stop at the desert oasis at Agua Caliente Park. We will return via Bel Air Ranch Estates, the first equestrian development in Tucson.
