Heyward Community Forest, Reservoir Road, Charlottesville, VA, USA
Okay so I told several people I’d make a mountain biking trip for the week after break and then I proceeded to completely forget to sooo here’s one for the next week 🙂
I’m labeling this as beginner/intermediate because I am not going to go over the absolute basics of biking, but Heyward isn’t too technical and is pretty beginner friendly . Basically, if you’ve mountain biked before you should be good, but mountain biking can be considered dangerous and has inherent risks, so feel free to text me with any questions if you’re concerned. We’ll just go the pace of the group, so no worries whatsoever.
The plan:
meet at the shrack at 4:30 and get bikes and gear together
depart by bike for Heward by 4:45 and ideally arrive at 5:00
leave heyward by 6:45 to get back by 7:00!
Gear:
What you should bring:
Athletic, weather appropriate clothes
close toed shoes (vans/converse etc are just fine!)
water
helmet, gloves, sunglasses if you have them
What I’ll bring:
all the same plus first aid and a multitool
