Mountainbike Lake Natoma! D12

Sutter St. Light Rail Station (map)

Selected By: Marsh

Ride Summary
Terrain: Rolling hills with a couple of hard (but short) climbs.
Distance: 12 Miles
Speed: 8 - 14 mph
Rider Level: D12 (Advanced Beginner)
Sweep: Yes

Join us for the 12 mile dirt loop around Lake Natoma. This ride is intended for people who can sustain 9 MPH or more on dirt. We tend to go kinda' fast, but we are happy to reign it in if we're pressing too hard. We would rather enjoy your company and see you come back than break speed records. It should take no more than 2 hours. If you cannot maintain this pace, you are not being fair to the rest of the riders.
As always, helmets are required.
This event starts at the light rail station in the hope that you'll save gas, money and the environment by taking the train. The train costs $2.50 (cheaper than you can drive) and schedules can be seen here...

Just make sure your train says "Folsom" on it.

An RSVP is a Social Commitment. Your Hosts and Organizers go to great lengths and often personal expense to make these events fun and enjoyable for you. If you are unable to show up, please update your RSVP a minimum of 2 hours before the start time of the event.
Just so you know, this meeting is posted in three different Meetup groups so even if there are no RSVPs here, there may be several elsewhere.

    hey marsh there is a new tree down on the shady trail and i'm sure there will be more damage before friday comes again. it might be a good idea to bring along some hand tools to clear out the easy stuff next time through.
