It’s nice out which means mountain biking szn has begun. Come join me and start the season off with a send at the beautiful, pristine and glorious ragged mountain. We’ll be doing the full ragged mountain loop which is about 7 miles plus biking there and back which is about 6 miles round trip so 13ish total. I’m guessing it will take about two and half hours including time to get everyone a bike and put them back. About half way through we will chill at a nice spot by the lake, eat, and bask in the sun. As far as difficulty ragged mountain has a lot of nice and smooth trail biking but definitely has some difficult terrain and steepness in spots, but you can always walk your bike if you need to, absolutely no shame in that, I will definitely be walking my bike multiple times. If you have been mountain biking once or twice before and are comfortable on a mountain bike then I give you the thumbs up to send this, but this is not a trip for true beginners.
