The Nacho Ride is BACK! This is not your average MTB Ride. We take it nice and easy and welcome new riders. Our goal is to have a good time and learn a few skills while making new friends.

The Nacho Ride is perfect for you if you are new to Mountain Biking, want to get back into it after a long summer, or you just want to find your people.

Meet at the Ahwatukee shop at 8:00 am and plan to roll out at 8:15. We will then ride to the trailhead from the shop.

Remember:

• Sunscreen
• Helmet
• Water
• Spare tube, or whatever you need to fix a flat. We will help you if anything mechanical happens (No need to worry about that.)

Kids are welcome with parents.
