Quarry Ridge Beginner MTB

It's time to mountain bike!

I will be leading a beginner mountain biking trip to Quarry Ridge this Sunday. Quarry Ridge is about 5 miles away, and we will be driving there. All skill levels welcome, and Hoofers has helmets and some dope mountain bikes making this the perfect opportunity to try out the sport!

Quarry Ridge is an actual trail system, meaning it has a variety of singletrack trails ranging from beginner to expert, so the ability to ride a bike comfortably is a must, with basic skills like shifting, braking, and riding over and off small curbs. If you have these skills, you have what it takes to go on your first mountain biking trip!

What you should bring:

• At least 1L of water (aka a water bottle)

• Snacks! (for some extra calories on the ride)

• $2 cash for gas money

• Something to carry these items!

Logistics:

• Meet at the boathouse at 10:00AM(right next to the Mendota Lounge where we have our weekly meetings)

• Plan to head out by 10:20AM

• Shred trails for 2 hours

• Return by 2:00PM

If you have any questions, please reach out to me.

Happy Trails,

-Chase Flackey

PS: If you have a vehicle that can transport bikes, let me know as that is the limiting factor for participants.

PPS!!: If the trip is full but you want to go, sign up on the waiting list! People drop last minute all the time, and if you're on the waiting list I'll be sure to reach out to you to see if you still want to go. It also helps me gauge interest so we can plan more trips in the future :)
