This Week: Singletracks New Years Group Ride + Snake Creek Gap Time Trial

Mountain biking is a great way to kick off the New Year and with fat bikes becoming more popular, there’s no excuse for staying off the trails this week, no matter the weather! Well, ok, unless it’s raining–someone needs to invent a bike that can ride wet trails without damaging the trail or the bike. …

Singletracks is organizing a New Year’s ride on January 1 @ 11am at Mason Mill park in Decatur, GA. The New Year’s day MTB ride is a bit of a tradition for me and I’m excited to host this year’s ride on my home trails here in Decatur. Mason Mill and Ira B. Melton parks are home to some of the finest singletrack inside the Atlanta perimeter so you don’t want to miss this ride! RSVP and get more details on Facebook or right here.

On Saturday, January 4, the Snake Creek Gap Time Trial series kicks off in Dalton, GA and Singletracks will be at the finish with schwag to give away at our tent. The finish line area is officially called “The Snake Pit” and it’s always a fun place to hang out after the race. If you’re not signed up for the Snake Creek Gap Time Trial, do yourself a favor and sign up, even if you’re on the fence. It’s just the kick in the butt you need to get out in the cold and start training for the 2014 MTB season!
