WOZ Beginner Green Ride at Tweety Bird

This no-drop ride, led by Jennifer Clark, will meet at the Little Sugar Parking lot on Chelsea Road, which is right at the Tweety Bird trail! We will ride Tweety Bird twice, once Clockwise, then again Counter Clockwise, to give riders a better sense of why trails are bi-directional and how each direction may affect your choices. We'll take plenty of stops and session any areas that are requested. The total number of riders will be kept low both for safety and to make sure that every rider feels comfortable within the group. No pressure; just fun!

Prerequisite for this group ride: completion of the Women of Oz Fundamentals Skills Clinic. You must have a fully functional mountain bike and helmet. ($20 first time rentals available for all WOZ at our preferred bike shop partners. Check www.woznwa.com for more information.)

Not sure if this ride is for you? Here is a description of where you should be in your riding skills for this ride:

You’ve ridden on the dirt multiple times now and you are starting to get the hang of things. You are now putting those skills from the clinic into play and working on shifting, braking, and body position.

Skills you can perform:

• Level pedals while riding
• Riding with one finger over L & R brake levers
• Getting to know berms (those are those turns with the dirt)
• Able to ride 60 minutes on easy terrain
• Climbing a hill on the bike might require a breather break on the way up, and at the top of the hill. (I thought hills were for going down??)

It's Cycle September and we want you to ride with us! Register for Cycle September on Love to Ride and log your miles to be in a drawing to win prizes! Join the Women of Oz Love to Ride Team by clicking here.

This is a ride at your own risk event, WOZ assumes no responsibility for any physical, emotional or property damage that may occur.
