June ARR/RLAG Club Ride at Lake Georgetown
Saturday, June 14, 2014 - 8:30am arrival, 9:00am wheels down
Meet Up location: Russell Park (look for the ARR banner at Group Shelter 1 at the end of Park Road 8: take a left just after entering the first gate (before the parking lot), the shelters are at the end of that road))
Meet Here
Riders will break into groups based on skill level, length of ride, and pace. Our "No Drop" policy will be in effect so no one gets left behind or lost. Bring plenty of water and don't forget your helmet!!
CARPOOLING is strongly encouraged and everyone is invited to bring a dish to share. (Cookies, chips, dips, salads, fruit, drinks, etc.). A Fajita lunch will be served after the ride at 12:30pm.
You do NOT have to be an ARR member to attend the club ride but we do ask that you sign a waiver and properly wear a helmet when riding. We will encourage you to join though, it’s only $20/year that goes toward trail development and mountain bike evangelism in and around Austin.

For the Russell park entrance, go left on CR 3406 then go about a mile and turn left on CR 262. Follow this straight to the park.
Trail Description: The Goodwater Trail at Lake Georgetown consists of 25+ miles of trail. The trail runs around the shoreline of the lake and has trailheads at all five parks. The trail consists of easy double track with little elevation change to rocky, technical and sometimes tight single track with lake views, cacti, and even a switchback. Parking at Russell Park is free as long as you don't ride past the gatehouse.
Standard disclaimers apply:
• Ride at your own risk
• Helmet required
• Carry plenty of water
• You need a working mountain bike and the ability to keep it that way (we will help where we can)
• If it’s not fun you did it wrong
