Itinerary:

I consider this is a scenic bike ride.  Almost every time I ride I have the opportunity to see deer along the way.   

We will meet in front of the restrooms located in the second parking lot area.  Keep driving until you see the building.  The plan is to start exactly at 6:00 PM.  Please  arrive 10-15 minutes earlier.   That will give us time to introduce ourselves and review how far and where we will ride.  The Big Creek Greenway trails can be confusing.  We don't want anyone to get lost.  No one will be left behind.  The plan is to keep together. 

This ride would be perfect for beginners.  If you don't have a bike, you can rent one right there next to the restrooms.  If you plan to rent one, plan ahead.  I have never rented one so I would be of no help.  I'm pretty sure you can do the research and pay online before heading to the trail. 

I will do my best not to take the trails that have big elevations.  The only elevations that we can't avoid are the ones heading toward the different bridges that we have to cross.
