Memorial to Downtown and Back Mountain Bike Ride

Memorial to Downtown and Back Mountain Bike Ride

If you’re wondering what to do about that mountain or Hybrid bicycle hanging up in the garage, Come out and enjoy the scenic routes to downtown Houston Market Area from Memorial Park.

What helps me to be active in Mountain Biking all year around.:

I do not hang my Mountain Bike up on hooks out of the way above anything. This will make it difficult to take it down and inconvenient.

I have my gear and everything I ride with in a easy to carry tub or container where it can be easily accessed".

I have a bike rack that allows me to load my bike on and off very quickly.

• In theory, " Remove the obstacles and gain the success."
