**SAVE THE DATE FOR OUR MONTHLY GALA RIDE. WE'LL ANNOUNCE THE LOCATION SOON.**

In case you don't know here's how a Gala ride works:

* **GATHER AT 9AM** in the trailhead parking lot and check-in
* **HIT THE TRAILS at 9:30AM**
* **POST-RIDE** join us for refreshments, beers, and snacks.
* A well-tuned mountain bike is always a must!
* We offer rides for ALL SKILL LEVELS, from novice to advanced. As so we will separate into 3 levels of riders: The beginner group, group C, will ride around 10 miles and 860ft of elevation gain; The intermediate group, group B, will ride around 12 miles and 1400ft of elevation gain; the advanced group, group A, will ride around 15+ miles and 2000+ ft of elevation gain. All rides are ‘no-drop’ rides (we won’t leave you behind or let you get lost) and are fully supported. A novice rider should be able to ride 10-12 miles ( including \~1000ft of climbing) on hilly narrow singletrack for 2.5 hrs.
* **BTCEB (Bicycle Trails Council of East Bay)** mission is to educate cyclists in responsible mountain biking, to advocate for appropriate access and to promote community among trail users so all may fully enjoy and preserve the natural spaces of the East Bay. Membership provides funding for our programs and gives us more influence with land managers in getting more access to more places. We work to get more trails made in the East Bay. We help maintain trails within East Bay parks (like Joaquin Miller and Crockett Hills and even Fernandez Ranch!) and we organize fun rides and events for the mountain bike community. Join us and help the cause!

Rides are free and open to the public and led by experienced local mountain bikers familiar with the trails. Medical coverage is provided to all paid BTCEB members, one more reason to join our club!
