Tuesday Night Rides (TNR)

Throughout the Summer and Fall, grab your mountain bike and join us weekly for our Tuesday Night Rides!

Alternating between on-mountain trails and other networks around the area (private trails, neighboring chapters, etc.), this is a great opportunity to connect with other riders, build your skills and learn new trails. All ability levels and riders are welcome! We split into groups according to skill and meet up at the end for a well deserved post-ride beverage! Check here every Sunday Evening to see where we’ll be riding next!

A Hard Tuesday's Night

6/2/2025 It’s been a hard Tuesday night And I’ve been biking with my dog It’s been a hard ride night And I just tumbled o’er a log But when I think of the joy That biking brings to this boy You know I feel alright You know I work all day To make the money to buy some wheels And it’s worth it just because of the way That mountain biking makes me feel So why on earth should I wail? ‘Cause when I’m out on the trail, You know, I feel okay When I bike Everything seems to be right

Green Without Envy

Tuesday Night Ride 5/26/26 I have no need to search for greener pastures My field’s blades sport a brighter shade of jade And it looks pretty green as I pedal past yours Emerald glow in the sun, barely fades in the shade And the leaves aren’t really that far behind Many hues are on view in the trees Plus blossoms (and pollens) of every kind (Which is nothing, at which to sneeze) And the dandelions, abuzz with busy bees So let’s see what may be beneath these trees, As we ride
