Dirt Girls Women's MTB Ride -KELSO!

• Reserve your visit at http://www.parkvisit.ca/ - Be sure to choose the Kelso Summit • Ready to ride at Kelso by 6:15 Lights are mandatory for all Dirt Girl rides in September. As a participant, you are expected to: • Be ready to roll. We start the ride at 6:15 SHARP. Plan to arrive early enough for your pre-ride preparations. • Wear a cycling specific helmet less than 5 years old and have an appropriate trail bike in good working order. (Sorry but for your safety: no department store bikes.) • Bring water. Staying hydrated is important so bring your own water and maybe a snack to keep up your energy. • Have some level of fitness. This is a physical activity, we will be riding up hills as well as down. We don’t expect you to be able to ride up all the hills but having some foundation of cardio fitness will be helpful to keep the group moving. (ie; not Day 1 off the couch) • Be self-sufficient. Mechanical issues happen and while our guides are happy to help as best they can, each rider should carry a mini-pump, spare tube and quick link suited for their own bike. • Dress appropriately for the activity and weather conditions. Bug spray and/or sunblock is recommended. • Be considerate and supportive to others. Encourage each other as we push the edges of our comfort zones and try new things. More about the reservation for Halton: http://www.parkvisit.ca/ • Free for Halton Conservation members, $10.50 per person if you book online or $12.00 at the gate. • Make sure to select Kelso SUMMIT, not the Main Gate! • We will have one of our ride leaders there to start check-in at around 5:45. • Halton conservation will issue a pass refund if canceled 48 hours before your visit (we will be looking at the weather and will post Sunday afternoon if we think we may need to cancel so you can get a refund).
