Itinerary:

A few die-hards still went for the mud slide the last Urban Mountain Bike, but hopefully, we'll have better luck this time around. We will be hitting some trails in the river valley, starting at the UofA campus. We will be riding mostly along the river valley and do a loop that crosses the river and back to campus. After the ride, we have the option of having some Italian gelato at Da Capo.

Please take directions with you and call my cell if you have questions ahead of time. We will not be waiting for latecomers, so be prepared and arrive early. Please take into account rush hour traffic.

Difficulty: I have put this as 'moderate' as it is highly dependent on conditions that day and personal experience. It'll be a tough ride for those used to pavement, but super easy for those used to more hardcore riding. We will be in forested trails OFF-ROAD for much of the ride, but will not do any dangerous drops.
