New Year's Day Bartlett Lake Road and Mountain Bike Ride, +Picnic

Start your new year off by joining us on Bike Prescott's traditional New Year's Day ride to Bartlett Lake. We have two ride options for you, the classic road ride and a mountain bike ride (MTB) Both rides start at the same time.

Neither ride has an official leader, because the rides are out-and-back and we will all be watching out for each other along the way.

Option One is the original ride which starts at the Desert Awareness Park in Cave Creek and goes to Bartlett Lake. This is about 42 miles with 4200' of climbing.

Option Two, This description will be updated when the final route details are finalized. There will also be a separate post. Stay tuned.

Anyone can adapt either route to suit themselves. For example, a possibility for an easier ride would be to simply not make the final descent to the lake.

After our rides, we will all gather for a picnic at Desert Awareness Park. Please bring something to share. You also might want to bring a chair.
Bike Prescott will contribute sparkling water, beer, plates & silverware.

Helmets required, lights highly recommended, E-Bikes welcome. For more information check out our safe group riding guidelines.
