SUMMARY:National Trails Weekend - Big South Fork!
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate National Trail Day with a weekend of fun at Big South Fork!!! We’ll camp at the group campsite\, work with the Big South Fork Bike Club\, and Ride BIKES! \nCAMP (5/31-6/3)\nGroup site E1 at Bandy Creek Campground is reserved!!! First come\, first serve camping. There are no hookups\, but plenty of sites to choose from\, and all are a leisurely stroll to the campfire\, pavilion\, and bathhouse. We reserved the group site from Friday afternoon (2 pm) to Monday (noon). \nWORK (Saturday\, June 1st)\nWe’ll meet at the Bandy Creek Visitors Center at 9am EST\, Our good friends with the Big South Fork Bike Club will have our work projects ready\, and AMBC will have all the tools you’ll need for the day. Bring a friend\, sturdy shoes\, safety glasses\, and water! At noon we’ll meet back at Bandy Creek for Lunch and Beers. \nEAT\nSaturday lunch is provided by Joe and his crew with the Big South Fork Bike Club. Saturday Evening is a potluck\, with REI providing the BBQ. Bring a side for 10\, along with needed utensils. We’ll host dinner at the group site pavilion @ 7 pm!!! All other meals are on your own\, so plan accordingly. \nRIDE\n\n6/1 From 2-4:30\nAMBC Social Ride has organized 3 rides for all skill levels. Please register for the rides.\n6/2 From 10-2\nAMBC Joy Ride will lead a women’s only ride that explores parts of the IMBA Epic route. Please register for the ride. \n6/2 From 9 – Later\nTHE EPIC ride is also a Sunday option\, this ride is not to be confused with the IMBA Epic route. The ride is one of legend\, a ride that typically takes everything you can muster plus a bit more. Rarely repeated\, uphills both ways and always a backcountry adventure\, it’ll be EPIC. Those who are prepared for 30 miles of self-supported riding in the early summer heat are gonna love it. Each rider needs to pack a lunch\, snacks\, and a $20. We’ll be stopping for refreshments at our favorite backcountry lodge – Charit Creek Lodge

SUMMARY:TWO BIKES + AMBC Social Ride Solstice Campout
DESCRIPTION:Join Two Bikes and AMBC Social Ride in celebrating this year’s Swift Campout\, a global call to go bike-camping over the solstice weekend. \nIf you’ve been to the Two Bikes Solstice Campouts then you know the drill. If not\, here’s the skinny: we’re loading up our bikes and lollygagging over to our friends at Low Meadow Farms for a night under the stars. \nThis year will be extra special thanks to a little help with some friends. As usual\, beer and NA bevvies will be provided by our super-buds over at Albright Grove and Crafty Baker Creek. And to really make the whole night go ‘sha-pow’ Appethai will be providing the food! \nAll this is free (with a suggested donation of $20-30) but Riders MUST register and spots are limited. All you need to bring is your camping gear and stoke. \nIf you’re new to bikecamping/touring/packing/whatever you want to call it\, then this is a great way to dip your toes into the water. Not sure what to bring? Check out this list. \nAlso we’re gonna try again this year to lead an all-terrain route (~13 miles) for those looking for a little extra spice. This route will be offered in three different flavors (very chill\, pretty chill and hyper chill). If you want to get rowdy\, you’ll need to show up early. All-terrain rides leave at 3:00pm. \nThis is a 21+ ride. \nChallenge Level: Serious Amateur in Party Pace garb. Black Belt for all-terrain rides. \nDistance/Elevation: 8.4mi/583 ft\, 13.3mi/1161ft (all-terrain) — both distances are one-way \nAverage Pace: 8-10 mph \nLink to Route: Ride with GPS\, Ride with GPS (all-terrain) \nAppropriate Bike: Any bike that can carry your camping supplies: tent\, sleeping bag\, extra food\, water\, etc. If you’re riding the all-terrain route\, obviously bring a mountain bike\, gravel bike or an ATB. \nRider Expectations: \nTemperatures may vary so bring layers. \nThe Classic Road group leaves at 4:00pm. All-terrain rides leave at 3:00pm. \nEven the regular route can be quite challenging and punchy. Be prepared to tackle some decent hills on a loaded bike. \nWe’ll supply drinks and food but bring extra of that stuff if you want. Riders are responsible for providing their own shelter. \nThis is a 21+ ride \nTool kits encouraged. Helmets required. \nREGISTER HERE!
