The Summer Ride Fest 05' is coming up in just one week. If you haven't

made plans and want to do some of the best single track around and have

local ride guides come on out for the weekend.



There will be rides for all abilities of riders happening Friday,

Saturday and Sunday. The weather is suppose to be great and the trails

are in premium shape. There is everything from rolling river singletrack

to epic climbs, women rides, beginner rides, kids rides, etc...



We will be meeting at the Trailhead Coffee House (located on the east

end of town across from the Best Western) each day at 9:30 to work out

the group rides. We will have Clif Bars and some other snacks available

for the ride, make sure to bring enough water. If you want to eat

breakfast I would suggest getting there by 8:00am.



There is a new amphitheater in Oakridge as well and I believe they are

having music Saturday night. Camping is up to each person, but look for

a sign at the Trailhead to see if there might be a group heading

somewhere.



There is no charge for this years event and we are hoping everyone helps

spread some business around town at different restaurants and stores.

Also don't forget to check out the new bike shop, Willamette Mountain

Mercantile, at the West end of town across from Ray's grocery.



If you have any question's, need directions, etc... email me direct at

Hope to see you on the trails.



Time to Ride,

Richard
