July 30 - Beginner & Skills / Advanced @ Ute Valley Park 2026

This Ute Valley Park evening ride meets in Colorado Springs on a Thursday. Riders check in before a 6:00 p.m. start and finish around 8:00 p.m. It is a mountain-bike group ride, not a timed race, with options for Beginner Hangout, Beginner, Beginner Trail Skills, BegIntermediate Hangout Pace, BegIntermediate, and Advanced riders. The meeting point is the northwest parking lot at Eagleview Middle School on Vindicator Drive, near Ute Valley Park. The ride uses a no-drop policy, meaning the group stays together. All participants must bring a safe, working mountain bike, helmet, water, snacks, and sunscreen. If weather or another issue cancels the ride, organizers will email participants and post on Facebook before the late-afternoon cutoff.
