About this event
Let's try something a little different...
Join me for a "beginner/intermediate" MTB ride around the trails at Maplehurst Natural Area. Not only is this trail a great place for a hike, it's a blast on a bike! Roughly 4 miles around (the outer loop), the trail offers a different look in each direction...
We'll meet up in the parking lot at 1pm, do some loop ridin' (I like to do it twice - CW & CCW), then head off to Shorts Pull Barn in Elk Rapids for a tasty beverage and a little smack talk. OR, join me ahead of time at the public parking lot off of Cedar Street in Elk Rapids (behind Cellar 152) at 12:15, for a road ride up to Maplehurst. Although most will opt for a mountain or fat bike, a drop bar "gravel" bike is my favorite platform for this adventure! (Best to leave the skinny tires at home...)
After rallying around the big map, we'll send out a faster paced group followed by a slower paced group (depending upon turnout), and meet back in the parking lot after each loop until folks have worked up a thirst!
