Go Ride!

The weather was amazing yesterday and looks to be good for a few days…get out and ride!  Midland’s City Forest is fast and fun.  The leaves are breaking down nicely, allowing riders to get more traction and actually see the trail.  Keep in mind that the daylight hours are limited for late afternoon rides.  Enjoy!

If you had a great ride recently, post a comment about it.

Northeast Chapter meeting/ride…

11 08 2008

Copied from Uncle Jimmi’s MMBA forum post…

A meeting will be held Wednesday August 20 at 7:00 PM sharp at none other than Midland City Forest. 
Bring a chair or stool or be prepared to sit on your bike, this meeting will be held at the main trail head parking lot. 
We will have a productive 30 to 40 min meeting followed by a lap through the forest for those who want to ride. Lights won’t be needed and we will do 2 groups, fast and slow. 
On the agenda for the meeting will be discussing the possibilities of holding a race before the season is over. 
Setting a date for the next meeting so it never goes this long between meetings again. The position of Secretary for the chapter. 
Adding a skills area and skills options to the existing trails at the MCF.

…hope to see all interested riders there.
