Join us for a women’s casual mountain bike ride at Massanutten Western Slope on Monday evenings. You do not need a parking pass (if you don’t have a pass just ask a ride leader for one when you arrive) but will need to sign an electronic waiver before the ride.

• Time: 5:30pm on Mondays
• When: April 6th-Oct 26th 2025
• Location: Meet at Massanutten Western Slope Parking Lot
• Pace: Super casual, no-drop ride with regrouping spots along the way.
• Length: Typically 1-1.5 hours and we will often cover 4-6 miles.
• Ride Surface: This is a mountain bike ride so plan for dirt singletrack trails with some rock.
• Regroup Points During Ride? Yes. The Massanutten Western Slope Trails offer lots of options for regrouping and course changes depending on where and what the group wants to ride.
• Post-Ride: Bring a chair, snacks, and a beverage for socializing after if you like!

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the ride coordinator(s):
Leigh Evans / 828-215-6630
Terri Sexton / 757-235-9455

RSVP
Join our Bikes for Neighbors Coordinator, Ben Wyse for a private tour of the shop where he fixes up the bikes. The program works to increase personal freedom and mobility with the help of bicycles.

We will be having coffee in the morning, and feel free to BYO for lunch!

Feel free to drop in when you can, as it's flexible!

This is a chance to see the shop, catch up with Ben to learn more about the program, how you can help, and what it takes to fix up a bike that will be used as a daily commuter and often kept out in the elements.

We'll send you the address once you RSVP!

Ben started full time with the Coalition in May 2024 to lead the Bikes for Neighbors program. As we work to grow the program's impact and reach more people, we're eager to connect with you our community of supporters who care about helping more people use bicycles for transportation.

However, please sign an electronic waiver before the run!
Time: 5:30p EXCEPT June, July and August are at 6p!
When: Ongoing unless stated on FB/IG stories at @svbcoalitionbike (check there for weather concerns) - if there is a 40% chance of storms on weather.com during 5p-7p, we will cancel.

Pace: ~12 min/miles
