Sorry for this being so last Minute!

We are going to be meeting at the Yurt at Cuyuna Parking lot, or Yawkey Unit at 10am. Reports are that the trails are firm and rolling fast! With the freeze/thaw conditions as of late studded tires would not be a bad idea if you have them.

If you are wanting to car-pool from the metro, Carl has room for one more bike and person. Message us or call/text 612-361-6902 if you want a ride up there.

We are excited to be partnering with Sober Climb Club!
