End of the Weekend Ride at Granite Bay
This is a late Sunday afternoon early Sunday evening ride around the trails of Granite Bay. Riders of all levels are encouraged to attend. No rider will be left behind. Depending on number of riders we may ride as one group or break into smaller groups. Please meet at the corner of Twin Rocks Rd and Boulder Rd. by 5pm the ride will leave promptly at 5:15. We will be riding approximately 5-8 miles depending on the stamina of the group. With the trails at Granite Bay there is always the option to go shorter as we generally loop back by the parking area several times during the ride. As always helmets are required and please bring water, a bike in good working condition and be prepared for a fun ride to end the weekend. For those that would like to extend the ride bring lights and we can ride into the night. Look forward to seeing you there.

I want to say thank you to the slow intermediate group for your patience while we were dealing with the injury during this evenings ride. I especially want to say thank you to Phred and Sharel for continuing on with the ride while I talked with the park rangers and fire department, and Christine for looking after Michael and keeping him calm while waiting for medical services to arrive.

On a brighter note we set a record for the Sunday evening ride with 20 riders in attendance. I hope everybody enjoyed what riding they were able to get in, as the trials at Granite Bay are in great shape after the recent rains. I hope everyone will be able to make it this next Sunday and I look forward to seeing you then.

Tracy JueGroup SupporterThanks Bill for going with the flow tonight with the injury and Phred thanks for taking us on a short ride after all. Enjoyed the Red vines.

SharelGroup SupporterUnfortunately,
there was an injury and I hope he is doing well. Other than that we did get some riding in and I met some new riders and it was great to see Tim and Brian again. It was a nice evening with a few sprinkles and a yummy snack of red vines up at the bench. Sweet!

BrianGroup SupporterI was too slow for the fast group and too fast for the beginner group, so I ended up riding myself half of the time because I couldn't catch up/find the groups. I ran into Jeff and Lynn part way though and we rode to Doton's Point and back. Thanks to Bill and Tim for the post ride beer at Round Table afterwards.

Hello everyone,
As I am sure you are aware one of our groups new riders suffered a fall last night at the beginning of the ride. At this time we do not now the extent of his injuries, but based on the type of fall, his condition after the fall and age, I opted to have professional medical services attend to him. Please everybody keep wish Michael well and a speedy recovery.
