Motion Makers Women's Mountain Bike Ride
Motion Makers Bicycle Shop Check out the Facebook group for Motion Makers' women's mountain bike group ride. The group is offering two rides this year, on Monday evenings and on Wednesday mornings to meet the needs of all the ladies in our area. Please read the descriptions below and choose the ride that best meets your skill level. The Monday evening ride meets at the Ledford Parking Lot in Bent Creek at 6pm and rolls out at 6:15pm unless it is posted otherwise in a pre-ride post. Wednesday morning ride meets at Rice Pinnacle at 10am and will typically leave directly. This is a beginner-friendly, social, NO DROP ride. Expect 6-8 miles and we will return to the parking lot no later than noon so you can get on with the rest of your day. Ride changes will be posted as early as possible on the group page. Training Pace: Training Ride. This ride is for the ladies who know how to handle their bike and want to get faster. Rides will be 8-12+ miles and will utilize more technical trails. Rules: 1. Helmets are 100% required. If you show up without one, we will respectfully ask you to not join us until you have one. 2. Be safe: mountain biking is an inherently dangerous sport. Please do not ride so far outside your comfort zone that you get hurt. 3. Be respectful: These rides are meant to encourage all levels of female riders to develop and grow as cyclists. If you are not capable of checking your ego on rides, this probably isn't the group for you. 4. Come prepared for your own ride which includes clothing, food, water, and repair gear. If you forget something, we'll help you if you need it, but generally please come prepared to take care of yourself. 5. Have fun! These rides are for you... Come learn, grow, and meet the amazing women we have the pleasure of sharing the trails with. I've come to realize how inspiring each of you are.
