What to Expect
Grenoside woods offers a really nice introduction to red riding to this this is a social ride for confident blue riders and above. We’ll be riding the red trail which is a very smooth flowing route with no surprises. There are options to loop sections and to also get off and meet at the bottom at any point. There’s also Options for some nice bowls and drop ins too. It’s a really nice site to develop confidence and build on skills. There are a few climbs back up to repeat but they are walkable.
We will meet in the spot below, get acquainted and head out. We won’t be rushing to get done, we won’t be pushing to tick off features- the aim is to have fun and ride bikes! And it’s really easy for riders to return to their cars anytime so if you need to duck out, no problem.
No pressure, just good times!
After the ride we’ll have a bit of a lunch social in the car park - there’s no cafe so please bring your own food & drinks.
