Women of COTA MTB Brushing (note this is a change of venue!)

Women of COTA is centered on bringing women together in a supportive environment to learn about COTA and the trail building/maintenance process. So if you've wanted to give back to our local trails AND unite with like-minded individuals who share a passion for mountain biking---here's your chance!

What: We will be clearing brush off the trail and creating sight lines on MTB. No experience is necessary. We will ride in a short way from our meeting spot.

Where: We will meet where MTB crosses Skyliners Rd (opposite FS 4606). Look for the WoCOTA signs.

When: Please arrive 5-10 minutes early, so we can have an on-time start.
What to expect: After our meet-and-greet we will will have a short safety and work overview briefing. We will gather tools and ride our bikes to the work area from our meeting spot.

Be prepared to work and to have FUN! Talking about the trails and the techniques used to maintain them is fun, so ask questions if you have them.

If you have to cancel, please be kind and send a message at least an hour before the event.

Plan on working rain or shine. If there is inclement weather, smoke from wildfires, or anything COTA deems dangerous, we will update this Meetup page and also send an email to everyone out through Meetup. If you do not hear from us, the event is on.
