Ride Like a Girl will be riding Rockburn and Avalon parks this Saturday. There will be two groups, a casual pace led by Julie W and either a beginner group or an intermediate pace, depending on who have out there. I'll be leading that one.

Date and Time: Saturday, October 14, 10 am to 12noon/1 pm

Pace/Terrain: Appropriate for most riders with a little experience. The terrain ranges from rolling single-track to roots and rocks; many obstacles will have walk-arounds. There will be some climbs and descents.

Where:
Starting at Rockburn Park in Elkridge, riding over into Avalon; Meet at the lower parking lot (directions and map below.)

Directions to the Park:
Rockburn Branch Park West Area -6105 Rockburn Branch Park Road, Elkridge
From Rte. 29, take Rte. 100 east to Md. 103 exit. Go around the circle and cross over Rte. 100; proceed through next circle. At the first signal light, make a right on Montgomery Road. Proceed to signal light and make a left to remain on Montgomery Road. Travel about a mile; make a left onto Rockburn Branch Park Road and proceed to park.

Parking lot by the Baseball Fields (7 and 8 on the map)

If this parking lot is full, please use the parking near 9 and 10 on the map and ride your bike back to meet the group.

What to Bring: All riders MUST wear a helmet (no lid, no ride), bring water, and have a trail-ready bike. Riders should also carry the usual basics: spare tube(s), a pump, tire levers, a chain tool, and basic allen wrenches.
