General Group Ride Info
- Everyone's invited: all ages, all skill levels, non-FORC and FORC members alike.
- We usually split up into 2-3 groups based on skill level.
- An experienced rider will be there to take out the beginner group.
- Afterwards we like to hang out in the parking lot, shelter, or local establishment for camaraderie and post ride nutrition.
- You're always welcome to show up and ride your own ride and just meet up with us afterwards.

Time & Locations
We try to mix up the location of group rides to keep them fresh and reach as many people as possible. Check out the QC MTB Trail Overview page for locations, directions, and more information about local trails. We typically schedule group rides around 5:30pm on weekdays since that seems to work best for most people. One group ride per week is common, weather allowing, during the prime riding season (May to Oct.).
