I will be "leading" beginner rides every other Saturday.
Rides will be at Allaire, 6Mile, Mercer, or where ever, weather permitting.
I will post up about 2 hours before scheduled start time verifying if the ride is cancelled due to weather or other unforeseen circumstance.
I may also post up rides during the week occasionally, so be sure to check! If you want to be added to my email notice and reminder list, feel free to PM me your email address. If you are interested in a ride, but need a specific date/time or dont want to ride with a group, feel free to PM me and I will try to help you out.
Please be sure to go to the end of this thread for the most recent updates/locations/etc.
These are beginner rides. No speed demons please.
The point of this is for beginners to get out there, have a good time, learn the trails, increase their confidence in a relaxed environment, without any pressure to perform or to ride faster to keep up with everyone.
We will go only as fast as the slowest rider.
If everyone that shows up wants to go faster, then away we go
But no pressure.
If any rider wants to repeat a section to learn it better and hone skills, I expect everyone in the group to give support.
So this is an opportunity to get your beginner friends and S/O out there to play and have a good time. Kids are allowed so are grandparents 🙂
If any experienced riders want to join and lend support, that would be swell.
How long will we ride? depends on the group.
The name of the game is FUN!
Please bring helmets, water, a snack, and a sense of humor.
Crabby patties can stay home unless you think the riding will medicate you and help you to 🙂
I also want to add that if the group is willing, we can also try some "challenging" sections for those that want to step it up just a bit, with of course alternative routes for those that are not ready for that... yet.
***single riders are welcome!
And THIS is very important, remember that you ride at your own risk. Myself, this forum, or landowners are NOT responsible if you get an owwie!

The First ride: Saturday July 28th. Wheels down at 9am. Route 27 lot at 6M.
Beginner paced. I have a few friends that have felt....well...nervous about riding at 6M, so I planned on this ride to help THEM. Relaxed pace focusing on just getting out there and having a good time. If anyone wants to walk over stuff that's cool. If they want to stop and try that log a couple times, that's cool too. No pressure to perform.
So if any of you have significant others who have been a little nervous about going out, please feel free to bring them. You dont even have to ride with them if you dont want to 😛
