# Event Details - **Event Name**: Freewheel Cycle MTB Social Ride - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 09 Jul, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Thu, 09 Jul, 2026 at 08:30 pm - **Event Description**: Thursday MTB social rides are for riders who have experience riding singletrack including roots, rocks, and punchy climbs and descents.About this EventLocation: Freewheel Cycle (back parking lot) @ 6:00pmWho the ride is for:This is not a beginner ride. This ride is for anyone who has experience riding singletrack and all of the obstacles that you may find on the trail, including short & steep descents, punchy climbs, roots, rocks, and off-camber sections. It is ok if you need to get off your bike for some advanced obstacles, but this is not a beginner ride. If you get off your bike for roots or every small hill, this ride may not be the right fit.Different Groups:Each ride will be split into groups depending on the number of riders who show up that week. Each group will have an official Freewheel leader and sweep so no one will be dropped or left alone at the back. We will encourage one another, celebrate the wins, and help each other out when needed.Future Rides:Through the season, ride locations will change from week to week so that we can explore all the amazing trail networks in the area. All information on When & Where to meet (or cancellation due to weather) will be communicated to attendees via email.Weather:The weather does not always play nice so we will keep an eye on it each week and provide updates as best we can. In a perfect season, we do not have to cancel any rides but it may happen from time to time. We also encourage responsible trail usage so we will not host group rides when the trails are too muddy. In some cases, the weather may cause us to change locations last minute so that we can look for dry trails. We will let you know of changes as early as possible.Sign up / inPlease register well in advance of each ride. Signing up in the parking lot holds things up as we wait. This year we are asking everyone to check into each ride by having their ticket ready to be scanned. Look for the registration table/person at each ride.As a participant, you are expected to:Be ready to roll at 6:00 sharp (6:30 for destination rides).Arrive early enough for your pre-ride preparations. It is not cool to hold up the whole group while you scramble to get ready.Wear a cycling-specific helmet less than 5 years oldDress appropriately for the activity and weather conditions.Have an appropriate trail bike in good working order. No department store bikes (for your own safety). Our service technicians will not be available to do last-minute fixes on your bike.Bring water and nutrition. Staying hydrated is important and snacks will keep your energy up. Bonking is not fun.Have a good level of fitness. This is a physical activity that will include hills and an intermediate/advanced pace. It is not ideal for people looking to get back into fitness starting from scratch. (ie; not Day 1 off the couch)Be self-sufficient. Mechanical issues happen and while our guides are happy to help as best they can, each rider should carry a mini-pump, spare tube, and a quick link suited for their own bike.Bug spray and/or sunblock is also recommended.Be considerate and supportive of others. Encourage each other as we push the edges of our comfort zones and try new things.Remember that this is not a race! It's a social ride with like-minded riders.We look forward to having you join us on Thursdays to ride bikes!
