Join us at the Ease Into Biking series - a set of six Saturday morning C rides aimed at newer riders and those who want friendly rides at a relaxed pace. May 11 through June 22. 10 mph average, no one dropped. Come to one ride, several, or all!

We will be exploring the pleasant, mostly-flat Rush Creek Regional Trail between the Coon Rapids Dam and the (more-rolling) Elm Creek Park Reserve in Maple Grove. Break at middle of the ride. Afterwards, enjoy an optional lunch (outdoors or indoors) at next-door 5-8 Grill or El Toro Mexican restaurant.

Plan to arrive about 9 AM so you have time to find our starting place, and to get your bike and yourself ready (e.g. check your tire pressure, adjust a seat, or review shifting). We will have a pre-ride gathering at about 9:15. Bring at least one filled water bottle, a spare tube, and any questions. Park on the west side of the Holiday lot.

If you have ANY questions about biking, clothing, weather, or directions, please contact us. We are looking forward to seeing you there!
