Ohill trails
Hey all u chickadees!
If there are any of y’all who are as stoked on this lovely weather as Shay and I, and want to hit the trails on a two wheeled vehicle (aka a mountain bike) for an easy, intro biking trip, check this trip out!!!
We have an idea for a nice route or two picked out but we can def adjust this based on skill level and energy level! We will take the pace nice and slow, so that everyone feels comfortable taking their time and getting comfortable on the trails. We’ll also take plenty of breaks and walk any features that we need to! The only prerequisite for this trip is the ability to ride a bike. You don’t need any mountain biking or trail biking experience, just know the basics of bike riding.
And, since mountain biking is such a male dominated sport, both in our club and in general, we decided to make this trip an affinity trip for our women, trans and non binary members! Please only sign up if you identify as a member of one of these groups, and if you feel uncomfortable signing up on the website for any reason just email me: jma9x@virginia.edu and let me know!
We will meet at the Shred Shack (116 Washington Ave) to get y’all your bikes and helmets fitted, and then head up to ohill trails.
***this trip isn’t necessarily first come first serve, as removal from the waitlist will be based on bike size availability, however we will try our best to go in order of sign ups***
For any questions email either of us jma9x@virginia.edu and smu5dv@virginia.edu
