NMBA Beginner Ride Announced
Written by Erik Lenzing   
Wednesday, 16 May 2007
NMBA will be hosting its first Beginner Ride this Thursday at the Galbraith Gap parking lot at 6pm. This is meant to be a gathering for beginner/novice riders who want to get out in the woods without the worry about whether they're going to be able to "keep up" or "hold people back".

Throughout the summer Erik plans to cover:
  • Nice trails in the area to ride
  • Learning to do basic maintenance on your bike
  • How to do simple repairs (fix a flat, fix a chain, etc)
  • How to traverse small obstacles
  • Anything else MTB-related that people want to learn!
Attendees should bring their MTB-style bike and a helmet.

This ride will be held each Thursday night through the summer as long as there is interest. The location may vary, so the forums or the calendar entry (on the front page ) should be consulted each week to find out where to meet.

Please pass the word on this Beginner Ride to anyone you know who might be interested.
