About this event
- Intended Audience: This ride is geared toward people who are seeking a social mountain bike ride through some of the best, most approachable singletrack trails in nearby Carolina North Forest (CNF). This ride is now considered a night ride so a front light of 425 Lumens minimum is now required. This is intended to be a beginner/intermediate-level, no-drop (no one is left behind) ride from Back Alley Bikes to the CNF and back. We will try to pick a route that is appropriate for the group’s experience and skill-level, but consider that singletrack trails can be intense for newer riders. We expect that folks joining us have a baseline of comfort riding off-road and familiarity with tight and twisting trails (in the dark), but strong technical skills are not required. On the other hand, front and rear lights are required for your ride home! Experienced riders are welcome, but we prioritize good vibes, riding comfortably, and staying together as a group over speed and intensity. Since there are lots of turns we will regroup often and stop and wait for each other as needed to ensure everyone stays together. All riders must sign the 2026 TORC ride waiver before riding. You only need to fill it out once per year. Again, lights are required because it will get dark. If it is really wet and the trails are closed or it is actively raining, the ride will be cancelled. Check https://www.torc-nc.org/trail-status/ for Carolina North Forest for the trail closure status.
