Tuesday Night ride, into THE NORGE!
.
PGMTB Club Tuesday night social ride is for those riders who deem themselves intermediate skill level / fitness and above…
.
This MTB ride is the more technical and faster version of our Sunday morning social ride and is NOT available to Foundation-level or beginner riders.
.
Not for the faint-hearted, the NORGE is the more raw MTB single-track experience in the Gorge – technical skills and fitness are essential here!
.
Whilst daylight savings is here (and how awesome is daylight savings!), a good light / battery set-up is needed for the latter part of the ride - ideally, one light on your helmet (to see around corners), another on your handle bar.
.
We’ll have an experienced local rider leading, and another at the rear of the group to ensure no-one gets lost should the bunch become elongated.
.
When I say the bunch becoming elongated, I don't mean that potentially you'll become taller on the ride, but rather the bunch will elongate as the gap between the faster riders and the more casual riders opens up.
.
Should this need any further explanation, don't hesitate to email plentygorgemtb@gmail.com and address to the President.
.
Arrive 6:30pm for a 6:45 pm departure, typically returning about 9:15pm.
.
Mountain biking, like most active sports, carries with it an inherent risk that you acknowledge when participating in this event.
.
