Ride with Me Series – Beginner to Intermediate Bike Ride w/Garrett
RSVP HERE
Trail riding is the perfect way to get out in nature, get fit, have fun, boost your mental health, build confidence, and even as a form of self-expression. Garrett started riding Winnipeg’s singletrack trails in his mid-30’s for fitness and to challenge himself, and can now be found dirt surfing almost any day of the week on almost any kind of bike.
Join Garrett for a mellow trail ride through Whittier Park that will meet participants at their skill level. Learn about basic trail riding skills and gear that can be used with ANY bike, get out in nature, and prepare to take the path less traveled on your next bikeventure!
These rides are for everyone and are particularly well suited for the beginner rider who may benefit from a bit of coaching. Along with a special guest and destination, each ride will include a cycling instructor to offer tips and tricks and make sure you are comfortable. Not sure the rules of the road? Wanna learn more about a kind of riding? Don’t know the best routes? Join us for a fun way to get familiar. If you can pedal and stop, why not take it to the next level and go for a ride?
Consider this an intermediate bicycle lesson disguised in a little adventure.
Q. I don’t have a bicycle, can I participate?
A. Yes please! We have bicycles, cargo trikes, tandems, and handcycles available at the starting location for rent by donation.
Q. I can pedal but not confidently. Can I participate?
A. Yes! We will go slow and make sure everyone is comfortable. We will take breaks and keep the distances short. A coach will be along for the ride to offer tips. This is how you can learn.
Q. I have a bike but it needs minor repair/adjustment.
A. Bring it to us, if it is a simple repair/adjustment we will help you on the spot, if a major adjustment we can take a look at it but bring it in early or rent one of ours while your bike gets looked at.
