For the November edition of our women’s ride series, we’re going to stitch together the best bits of the North end of Anthony Chabot Regional Park in Oakland.
Join ride leader Rebecca Lewington* at 8:30am at the Marciel Staging Area on Redwood Road. We’ll gather up for a quick huddle to talk about the ride at about 8:45, and roll at 9:00 am.
We’ll probably split into two groups. The Denim group will cover about 15 miles with about 2,000 feet of climbing. The Teal group will go a bit slower and do a bit less: 11 miles with 1,500 feet of climbing. This month’s ride is suitable for less-experienced riders. Rest assured that more experienced riders will have fun, too.
The mission of Ride Like a Girl is to have fun, learn new trails and meet other women (cis, trans and femme) who love to mountain bike. We’ll take care of you: these are no-stress rides where no one is left behind.
Please bring your mountain bike, obviously, in good working condition. (No ebikes, please. Ride Like a Girl is strictly acoustic.) Whether you’re running tubeless tires or not, please make sure you have a spare inner tube to fit your wheels, plenty of water and some food for the trail.
We usually hang out for a while after the ride, so bring along your favorite beverages and snacks if you feel like it. And a chair!
BTCEB tirelessly advocates for better bike access on trails in the East Bay and we need your support. Please consider joining today at https://btceb.org/join-us/.
