Join me for a potentially challenging bike ride along the Faye & Dutch Tiemann Trail at Pine Log State Forest - Sand Pond Campground area.
This is more difficult ride than Conservation Park as it is single-track riding along a non-graded trail. If you like a bit more of a challenge, this might be the trail for you. We will take this ride slowly over 45-60 minutes to complete all 6 miles of trail. We'll stop along the way to have a snack/water break mid-way.
Trail/mountain/gravel bikes are highly recommended, with some kind of suspension system. Details on the trail can be found here: https://www.trailforks.com/trails/faye-and-dutch/
Bring water, snacks, sunscreen, bug spray & whatever else you might need for a safe, enjoyable ride. Helmets are required for all riders. A spare inner tube for your bike is recommended. The ride leader will have an air pump and basic tools to change a flat tire or fix basic issues. Parking is at the Sand Pond Campground; please note that a day pass ($2) or annual pass ($45) is required to use the state forest facilities. If you do not have one, you can purchase one here:

**Please make sure your Meetup notifications are set to ON (in case I try to get in touch with you).

It's summer and time to start more biking and less hiking! Have a bicycle but don't know how to maintain it? Come join us for some basics of bicycle maintenance. We'll show you some of the basic tools and how to use them, innertubes and innertube patch kits, how to change a tire or innertube, mounting and removing front and rear wheels, and what you should be carrying with you when you ride.
No need to bring your own bike, but if you want to get your hands dirty, this might be a good chance.
Remember...we're back at the Science & Discovery Center of NWFL on Airport Rd. in Panama City.
