What we're about
This group is for anyone interested in mountain biking the Upstate area of South Carolina and around! Area mountain bike groups are welcome to use this meetup to schedule rides, events and meetings. Our main purpose is to make it easy to find local rides and make friends with other Mountain Bikers.
Everyone is welcome to post their own rides. So dont worry about your riding level. Please join the group and add to the fun! If you are having trouble posting, send a message to me (kel shipman).
