Ride Like a Girl is an initiative to get more women/girls into mountain biking and let them experience the joy it can bring. Everyone is welcome to join us on the FIRST Thursday of the month March through August. We generally meet at Mad Dog Cycles in Orem at 5:30 pm, but see postings for more details.

It is May...

and the weather is looking delightful. We are going to meet at Mad Dog Cycles in Orem at 5:30 pm on May 6th. After we have gathered, we will jump in our cars, head to a trail, and go ride our bikes. The big decision is what trail to ride. I have been hunkerin' (is that the right word?) for some Lambert Park. I am assuming that it is dry and in good repair. Those of you in the area, could you verify?

If not Lambert then something by the mouth of Provo Canyon as a back up. Who is with me?

Directions:

Take I-15 to the Alpine/Highland exit, just south of Point-of-the-Mountain. Drive straight east 5 miles towards the mountains, turning left at the stoplight in Highland (where you see the grocery store and gas station). Drive 2 miles north into Alpine to the 4-way stop at 200 North. Turn right. At the next stop sign, turn left. You'll be on 200 East, which becomes Grove Drive. Continue northeast on Grove for two miles. The road will turn 90 degrees to the right. Pass two streets on your left, then arrive at a T in the road. Turn right, across the river. At the fork in the road, go right for the Bowery parking area. Pass the High Bench dirt road on your right. About 300 feet further up the paved road, keep straight as the main road turns right, entering a smaller road. The Bowery pavilion is on the left, 500 feet up the dirt road, with a parking lot on the right. (Toilet, pavilion, water.)

I was on Lambert a couple of weeks, ago and I am guessing it is still in good shape. I wish I could come, but 7 of us are leaving Thursday for Mesa Verde.

See ya' down there.
