"Open to Road and Mtn Bikers"

With the full moon,it is a great time for the Friday night ride followed by a BBQ - Road or Mtn Bike. We will ride 2 + hours - final route to be decided but mtn bike could include Sugarmama up, Bobcact down with Ridgeback R2, R1 out. Road Riders can head out to Elbow Falls and meet us back at Allen Bill

Post ride, we'll cook up some smokies and have some snacks. Bring something to cook and something (hot or cold) to drink. Bring some extra clothes to put on for this part too!!

Let me know if you can bring something to contribute. If anyone has a lantern or two, please bring them along. Firewood will be needed as well.

We will be starting at the parking lot at Allen Bill Pond so we can use the firepits after the ride.

This ride will be contingent on weather and trail conditions at the day so keep your fingers (and spokes) crossed. Final confirmation to go out the night before.

Required Items to Bring:
-A mountain bike in working conditions - Bike Helmet .
