RIDES RIDES AND A WORK PARTY!

Saturday September 23rd

Group Mountain Bike Ride & Raffle Drawing

2:00pm

Join WRCMBA members and families at Blacklock Trail just North of Port Orford off Airport Road. These trails are great for all levels of riders. Expect some sand, shore pine forest singletrack, coastal views, and about a 10 mile ride. Bring dinner and your drink of choice and hangout after the ride! We will also be drawing our raffle winner due to the fact that we had to cancel the Memorial Ride.

To get to the trailhead take the 101 highway south of Langlois and north of Sixes Oregon. Turn west on Airport Road across from Pacific high school and follow that road all the way to the end where you’ll see green hangars on the right next to a runway and a dirt parking lot hidden on the left-hand side. There are no restrooms available so plan accordingly.
