Kids/Family Rides -
Friday, July 26th @ 6PM
Friday, August 2nd @ 6PM

We'll meet at Stonewall Farm.  

We will try to split into appropriate groups and ride a combination of the single track and wagon roads at the farm, the rail trail, and some other nearby stuff just off the rail trail.  

If there is an interest we can also work on specific skills to help people get more comfortable on their bike.

I also need adults to help with rides.  The kids split into groups based on ability.  Typically 3 groups roll out.  This isn't a free baby sitting service.  Parents are encouraged to attend and ride, but we also need experienced riders who know the trails and can even help with advice for the riders.  Let me know if you can help out.

Please sign the annual waiver for you and your children.
