ARR August Club Ride at Lake Georgetown

August Club Ride at Lake Georgetown

Saturday, August 10, 2013 - 09:00

Meet Up location: Russell Park (look for us outside the park ranger gate.

Riders will break into groups based on skill level, length of ride and whether one wants to rip up the trails or ride at a social pace and smell the flowers. "No Drop" policy in effect so no one gets left behind or lost. Bring plenty of water and don't forget your helmet!!

CARPOOLING is strongly encouraged and everyone is invited to bring a dish to share. (Cookies, chips, dips, salads, fruit, drinks, ICE!!)

You do NOT have to be an ARR member to attend most club ride but we do ask that you sign a waiver, properly wear a helmet when riding and we’d be more than happy to have you join!

Trail Description:The Goodwater Trail at Lake Georgetown consists of 25+ miles of trail. The trail runs around the shoreline of the lake and has trailheads at all five parks. The trail consists of easy doubletrack with little elevation change to rocky, technical and sometimes tight singletrack with lake views, cacti, and even a switchback.
