Post Canyon MTB ride - intermediate

A must MTB ride, Post Canyon has trails for every rider. Our ride will feature the thrilling Kleeway downhill at the end of the ride. Be prepared for swoopy, high speed thrills. Before that it's a long, long but fun uphill slog followed by a beautiful downhill through the forest to Kleeway. If the trails are muddy we won't ride. We'll just reschedule and maybe substitute a close by gravel ride. I'll post a go-no go swap out no later than Wednesday night before the ride. So check back for changes.

Route: This is the probable route. Changes may occur on the fly depending on our mood, weather, etc. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46648299

Weather Cancellation Policy: It's a long drive and a tough trail, so we won't do this trail in wet weather. We may substitute a gravel ride, however. .

Required Gear: HELMETS must be worn at all times while riding. This is a requirement and not a request.

Recommended Gear: Always bring plenty of water, a snack for energy, a flat repair kit, including a spare tube. You'll need to bring a tool kit and small pump.

Mandatory for all riders: Obey traffic laws and trail regulations and remember you’re a representative of the greater cycling community and should conduct yourself that way on the road. Please represent us well. If you haven't read it lately please read the Oregon Bicyclist Manual (http://goo.gl/Q8FNe3)

All riders must have their rides in good working order and must bring a flat kit & spare tube. If there is an issue with proper working or lack of equipment you may be asked to sit the ride out. Please ask for help if you are ill equipped prior to the ride. We will try to help!

All riders must be able to change a flat should they have one or have a way to get picked up (AAA, Tri-Met ticket, a friend…). There is often, but not always someone on the ride who knows how to help you change your tire, so plan accordingly.

Earbuds? No way. Listen to the trees. They will guide you.
