February 15th's West Marin ride for middle schoolers
February 15th's West Marin ride for middle schoolers
Please join us for a fun day of mountain biking in West Marin. We’ll have a pick up in Mill Valley and another in Fairfax. From there, we’ll drive on out to San Geronimo where we will start our ride.
Our route will take us up a series of steep fire roads and then down some fun challenging trails. This ride will be more challenging than most of our after school rides. Please come prepared with a lunch as well as the below gear.
Please go over your riders bike with them and address any mechanical issues that may cause problems on the trail. Also, please help your student pack all of their cycling gear including their helmet, bike gloves, a spare tube, lots of food, plenty of water and lights. Also, I recommend a light wind beaker or rain jacket (when appropriate) that can be carried in a pocket. Light weight knee pads, elbow pads and protective eyewear are, also, recommended. For riders who are allergic to poison oak, a single use packet (or reusable small container) of Tecnu is another great thing to pack.
Thanks!
