Young bike enthusiasts got a special treat on Saturday when members of the Odyssey BMX Team stopped by Menifee Bicycles on Newport Road as part of their California Tour.

Tom Dugan, Justin Spriet, Travis Hughes, Jacob Cable, Aaron Ross and Broc Raiford chatted with youths during the "meet and greet" and joined the others in performing tricks on ramps and rails behind the bike shop. The team members are preparing for their next big BMX event, scheduled for June 18-21 in Chicago.
