EASY Mountain Bike Ride at LaPine State Park

October 9, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Organizer: Connie 916.215.9573. This ride will be limited to 6 riders, myself included. This ride is for people who like to ride at a slower pace. We will ride 2 of the loops, Deschutes and Fall River and consider biking the Cougar Loop after the first two loops. The route is mostly flat with nice river views and a few rocks. The total distance is about 8 miles with 4 more miles if we add Cougar Loop.

Allow an hour to drive to the starting point and get yourself and your bike ready to ride. There is a toilet in the park but not at the starting point. Stop and use it before arriving, if needed. (There is a chance it could be locked so use a bush instead.)

We will meet promptly at 10:00 am at the MacGregor Viewpoint for a brief meeting. It is strongly encouraged that we wear masks at this meeting, and please don’t park closely together. Also please keep 6 feet of distance between others whenever we are stopped. Helmets are required. It’s a good idea to wear bright colors and bring a whistle in case of any problems. We tend to get spread out on the trail. Bring plenty of water and a snack. Wear layers appropriate for the weather.

You MUST sign up to go on this ride. After you press ATTEND, be sure to fill out the “Complete your RSVP” form with the information required, then press the arrow button to submit. Please RSVP and/or cancel in a timely manner. Rain before or during the ride will mean a cancellation. Check Meetup by 7:30 am that morning for any updates.

*****Bella rides are “no-drop” rides and no one will be left behind. In consideration of others, we ask that you choose a ride that is close to your skill level based on the description given of the ride. If you choose to leave the group by going significantly faster, or taking a different route, you have an obligation to let the leader know. When you leave the group, you are on your own. No guests are allowed on this ride. You must be a current paid member of the Bellas to attend. You will find the LaPine route in the Bella Library.
