Roots to Rocks - Youth Mountain Bike Ride

This is a no rider left behind group ride – think “party pace”

There will likely be some “session-ing” and skills instruction along the way.

This is a perfect way to meet other riders and build skills on your bike.

We do have a limited number of bikes and Helmets available free of charge in case you don’t have one (we will ask to hold something as collateral during the program – cell phone/credit card/etc.).

**For those who bring their own bicycle – we ask that you ensure that the bike is in SAFE/WORKING order PRIOR to attending the group ride**
