What will you see?
This ride will be staged from the Foote family’s home. The route will take riders through open hilly fields with beautiful views of the mountain, and wooded trails. Riders should have trail riding experience and be ready to have some fun with a new group of riders in the beautiful valley landscape!
There may be some opportunity for riders to try out some more technical single track with the support of experienced mentors. The group will loop back to their start point to enjoy a barbeque with fellow riders.
Women's Ride Day Schedule
09:30 Rider Check In. Participation waivers must be signed.
10:00 Rider Safety Meeting: Safety and etiquette will be reviewed for the ride. Lead and sweep riders will be introduced and an orientation to the trail will be given so all riders understand what is to come on the day’s ride.
10:30 Kickstands up: Riders may be separated into groups to ensure they embark on the route appropriate to their level of ability and preference for the ride. Each group will start their led rides with sweep riders in place to assist/coach as needed.
