Highland Reverse Ride – 10/4

Tammie Philpott

A Celebration of Highland MTB Trails will be held on October 5th, Group ride at 10:00 am with BBQ after.

This ride was formally known as The Carlos Ramirez Memorial ride, We will still be riding the trails in a reverse direction, ( backwards). The trails will be available to ride backwards from Sunrise to 4:30.

This is a chance to ride the trails backwards and hang out, ride with the volunteer’s that design, build, and maintain the trails.

It is appropriate that the Carlos ride that started about ten years ago should evolve into a celebration of volunteer advocacy.
