Roots to Rocks - Group Mountain Bike Ride

Sunday, November 15 · 10 AM – 12 PM · Wheaton Regional Park

About

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 have a limited number of bikes and helmets available to borrow (we will ask to hold something as collateral during the program – cell phone/credit card/etc.). For those who bring their own bicycle, ensure that the bike is in safe working order PRIOR to attending the group ride. Program pre-requisites: Ages 6 and up, must know how to ride a bicycle, must know how to operate a bicycle with gears/hand brakes (no coaster brakes). Participants must wear closed toe shoes and provide their own water bottle/hydration pack. It is also recommended that participants wear: sunscreen, bike gloves, and above the ankle socks. No more spots available? Contact todd.bauer@montgomeryparks.org to let us know you would like to join. We prefer that you pre-register for the program, however drop-in participants are welcome. Loaner bikes are first come first serve; any registrants who have requested a bike will get priority over drop in participants. Please note drop-ins will not be notified of program changes unless an email has been sent letting us know they are joining so we can include them.
