The typical ride will be about 1.5-2 hours and about 10 miles. This is a great ride thru beautiful forest but without the technical …

This meetup group is a place for active young folks (twenties-thirties; a bell curve with a population somewhat in the middle of that age range / rough about the same age as I am is what I'm hoping for), to make new friends and do fun things together. The motivation behind making this group is that I have a huge bucket list of things I want to do.
