Where: Flat Creek Crossing Ranch

When: Saturday Aug 9, 8:00am arrival, 8:30am wheels down (after the faster riders have gone).

New!! Click here for online waiver form!

Post-ride lunch & swimming also available.

Meet-Up Location: Drive into the ranch entrance on Ulrich Rd, and you will see Rick, the ranch manager, who will ask you to park and then return to pay $10 and sign the Flat Creek waiver. If you are riding with the Ridge Rider group, you will also be asked to sign the standard ARR waiver, since ARR ride leaders will be leading the groups.

Bring your floaties and fancy bikinis as the swimming hole will be available after (or during) the ride.

Riders will break into groups based on skill level, length of ride and whether one wants to rip up the trails or ride at a social pace and smell the flowers. The usual "No Drop" policy will be in effect so that no one gets left behind or lost. Bring plenty of water and don't forget your helmet!!

A full lap of Flat Creek is 7 miles with around 600 ft of climbing. This is an Open Ride on a race loop, so expect some faster riders and racers to be out there with us. We will let them leave before us.

ARR will host a post ride lunch providing the main lunch fixings, but all are encouraged to bring something to share (chips and dips, sweets, salads, sides and ice, ice, ice). BYOB.

The "Saloon" is in use this weekend - we will start, end and grill by the ranch entrance - toilets will be available for our use.

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)

• You are responsible for the ranch entry fee ($10)
