Spencer and I at Santos on Labor Day!

Spencer and I met a few people at Santos for a Labor Day ride around the Vortex Red trail! Here are a few pictures. We rode Vortex Red, Twister, Dr Ruth, Marshmallow, pine tree, puppy loop, and Sink Hole. 14 miles and I burned 3000 calories and drained my 100 oz camelbak! Thats Gregg Irving in the last picture with Spencer, he led us around the Vortex Red trail!

BAADR Monthly Family Ride This Saturday Sep 12th, 9am!

We will be having our Monthly Family ride this month back on the normal day of the 2nd Saturday of the month. We have also decided to move the location down the road 3 miles to "Morris Bridge Park" site due to better access to those trails (no road crossing involved) and the site is more secluded and we can be by ourselves a little more. We will be having a class once again for those new people who want to take it.

This will also be the site of the "Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day" event we will be holding on October 3rd. That event will take the place of our "Family Ride" for October.

We will also be shooting a story with Bay News 9 this Thursday around 10:30am at Trout Creek.
