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.

Riding the Ridge

Carrie, Wendy, Beth, Janalyn, Jen

Everyone calls it something different. I have always known it as the "Ridge Trail". We met at the top of the loop and crossed the road. We climbed for a bit and did some descending, ending up at Mud Springs. We took a right and climbed up and then flew down the what is often referred to as "Joy" (for good reason). There were some puddles up to that point and we thought the climb could be pretty wet, so we skipped the dirt climb and came up the road from Cascade Springs. We were back before we knew it. The temps were cool, the trails were just damp for the most part, and it was a great evening to be riding bikes with the girls.
I have been asked about whether we are going to do it next month. It is not necessarily scheduled, but if I have interest and trail suggestions I could be talked into it. Leave some comments and let me know.
