Beginner Mountain Biking at Wcp

OVERVIEW

Walnut Creek Park (WCP) is one of the best places to mountain bike in central VA, and its only 10 miles south of town. Besides the miles of excellent single track, it offers a lake with a beach for swimming, several places to grill, and an 18 hole disc golf course (and for future reference, the club has discs). We’ll spend ~2 hours learning how to ride mountain bikes through the woods over roots, rocks, and an occasional log. This trip is for all levels but the riding pace and trail selection will cater to beginners. I will need drivers for this so will put all names to the waitlist and move the first driver to the trip list and then first-come-first-served after that.

The club provides sweet front suspension mountain bikes, helmets.

You should bring plenty of water, athletic wear (sneakers, shorts or non-baggy pants), and swimwear + towel if you want to take a dip to cool off after the ride.
