September Social Ride: Westwood
10:00 – 12:00
We’re shifting gears this season to focus on what matters most: community.
Each monthly Social Ride is all about good trails, good people, and good vibes—with light snacks, prize giveaways, and amazing support from our local sponsors.
Whether you're here to ride or ready to lead the way, there's a spot for you:
🎟 RIDER TICKET
Come out, cruise the trails, meet new faces, and enjoy a laid-back group ride experience.
🧭 LEADER TICKET
Help guide a group and keep the ride flowing. We’ll give you all the details and support to make it easy!
🔄 Ride Levels – All Riders Welcome!
Ride groups will be based on who shows up—so the more riders we have, the more ride options we can offer! Invite your friends, spread the word, and let’s build out a great lineup. Here's how we break down skill levels:
Beginner 🟢
New to mountain biking or just getting comfortable on green trails? This ride is all about fun, flow, and learning at your own pace.
Intermediate 🔵
You’re confident on green and blue trails, can handle small features and climbs, and like a bit of a challenge—but nothing too wild.
Advanced ⚫
You’re comfortable on most terrain, including technical black trails, fast descents, and steeper climbs.
No pressure, no ego—just good times on two wheels.
🎁 Giveaways at every ride, thanks to our awesome local sponsors.
Let’s ride together and make this season the best one yet!
