If your wife and her friend are true beginners, I would highly recommend they attend the class. The Ladies Ride does not get into the curriculum that is set up for the class (bike setup, bike repair, bike maintenance, etc.). I'd recommend they attend the class and also come out and ride with other ladies to improve on what they have learned. The class sounds perfect for them and I hope they sign up for it. Kudos to Warren Baptist Church for putting on the class!!!
The next Ladies Ride is April 26, 1:00 p.m. at the Petersburg trailhead of the Bartram Trail (aka Lake Trail). We do have riders of all ability levels, and this is a no-drop ride.

Got news today that the Warren Baptist mt bike class is going to be in the "Field House" not in the main building. The Field House is the brick building in the parking lot. This will be easier to bring your bike for maintenance and to do some practicing skills.
I am hoping for a good turn out. All are welcome.
