Hey all...I'm getting back into mountain biking for the first time in 20+ years (when I was a teen) in order to try and get some physical activity (other than yard work) back into my life. I live less than 5 mins from Allaire, so I figured that will be a good place to start trying to build up some skills and endurance. A couple of questions I have before I head out there:
-Any idea when the Tuesday beginner rides start?
-What are some basic minimum and recommended accessories I should have with me? (I know helmet is a must...but how much water?, repair kits? tools? etc.)
-Is there a certain trail I should try to stay on as a beginner?
-How long should I expect it will take me to complete a loop around a given trail (assuming a slow/medium pace and no significant stops)?
Thanks in advance for any help.
