Mt. Airy Forest MTB Trails
Tuesdays @ 630 PM
📍https://maps.app.goo.gl/XR1E3UaVHVoX4xek8
Meet us at the West Fork trailhead located on Google maps under Mt. Airy Mountain Bike Trailhead. We plan to hit all 5 miles of trails at Mt Airy MTB Trails. These trails are fairly hilly. While this ride is open for all skill levels, newer riders might need a bit of patience as they acclimate to the total ascent. We will always have slower and shorter routes. The trail is easy to navigate, and most of the riders can show you the way to the parking lot if you are done. Troy, head trail steward, always cooks up some sausages for the main course, but riders bring sides to share.
Mitchell Memorial Forest
Wednesdays @ 630 PM
📍https://maps.app.goo.gl/Lbz8zQm8du4kUVEK9
Meet us at Mitchell Memorial MTB trail for a fun ride on both loops A & B. Loop A is a more beginner friendly yet challenging course. You will find rooty sections and obstacles to bike over. Loop B is an intermediate loop filled with large rock gardens. Overall climbing is short and not very steep yet the rough terrain can make it challenge to ride at a consistent speed. Whether you want to do a few loops of A or a double loop of B, join us for a post ride grill out to socialize with the local mountain bike community.
Lebanon Bike Park
Thursdays @ 630 PM
📍https://maps.app.goo.gl/PTVydgxaVFtZeH9w8?g_st=ac
Let's get together and explore this beautiful amenity that the Lebanon Parks and Recreation Department has provided. We will start the night on the original trails in the front of those park. These trails have short of punchy climbs and tons of fun features for new and seasoned riders. After we hit the loop on the west side of the park, then finish up on the newly constructed trails on the east side of the park. These trails add a bit more elevation and mileage, but you are rewarded with longer descents that are a great progression from the original trails. After the ride, bring a beverage and join us as we grill up some sausages for a snack before heading out.
Devou Park Trails
Fridays @ 630 PM
📍https://maps.app.goo.gl/9DjCA8Mn7tPb9U4h7?g_st=ac
We'll be meeting in the gravel lot. This is a no-drop ride. Speed is not a factor, but there will be a decent amount of climbing on the route. Participating riders should be able to complete the climbs, but we will be resting at the top periodically. There will be multiple speed groups, from intermediate to advanced. Devou is awesome because if you want to cut it short, just head downhill back to the car. Once again, we have a bit of a cool down and fuel up before we head out to start our weekends. Bring a beverage and sit under lantern light while we grill up some food for the crew.
Before we get into ride details, be sure to sign the waiver below.

🎯 NO-DROP RIDE!
Speed is not a factor, but there will be some climbing on the route. Participating riders should be able to complete the climbs, but we will be resting at the top periodically.
We will likely have multiple intermediate level groups. One group will be faster with less breaks and one group will be slower with more breaks.
🌙 NIGHT RIDES COMING?
We hope to get night rides approved before the Fall when it starts getting too dark at 6:30PM. For now though, we're riding til dusk.
👥 Ride Leaders: Our ride leaders will depend on volunteer availability, but we will have someone to get everyone gathered and going each day. The ride leaders will be identified at the beginning of the ride.
