Ladies Mountain Biking

Beginner Ladies Mountain Biking Ride
Thursday, September 8, 2011 at 6pm

Lead by Bobbi Kirk (an amazing mountain biker) we will be riding Prospector Trail to Church Rocks and determine then how much of Church Rocks riders want to do. This is a great trail for beginners. Don't be afraid of a lack of technical skills because Bobbi is a great teacher. I plan to go and I would be happy to help with directions or questions. Call me-Shannon at 801-725-7518.

Cottonwood Trailhead:  This is a great ride! Take Exit 16 from I-15. Turn towards Hurricane and pass Coral Canyon. Drive to the traffic light in 0.7 miles and turn left on Old Highway 91. Now go exactly 2 miles north. Watch on your left for a gravel road that enters a tiny single-lane slot under the freeway, with a sign that says "Cottonwood Trailhead". It will be between a warehouse Winkel Distributing and a Rocky Mountain Power office. Turn left and drive 0.25 miles under both lanes of the freeway to reach the trailhead.
