Itinerary:

Blankets Creek!

The mountain bike trails have something for all. Beginner to advanced trails can accommodate anyone who has a mountain bike. As for me, I'm no expert till we finish and head to Sixes Tavern for some beverages.

Ride starts promptly at 6:30 and we can split into groups per rider level.  I have no problem leading the beginner or intermediate bikers; however, you experts are on your own to be back by the designated time.  We will warmup on mosquito flats then do the dwelling loop. I ride in the rain; however, if they close the triails i will let everyone know ASAP.

*******
I recommend everyone staying for Food and Beverages; however, it is not required to come.
