- Wilder Slow(er) RideWilder Slow(er) Ride
Time: 10:00 am
We would like to welcome beginner or slower mountain bikers on our monthly slow ride every 4th Saturday of the month. This ride will be at a more leisurely pace. We may not cover as many miles but it will be a beginner friendly ride. There will probably be an intermediate/advanced group for the regulars and fast people as well. The slow ride is beginner friendly but does require fitness and controlled off-road bike handling skills. at 10:00 am - Ride @ WilderRide @ Wilder
Time: 10:00 am
We meet every Saturday at 10am, weather permitting, for a ride starting at Wilder Ranch State Park. at 10:00 am
