June 9 , 2018 Bird Farm Trail Ride
Posted: 11 May 2018 14:50
UPDATE: Waiver attached. Please print, sign, and bring with you.
I have gotten trail maintenance done earlier this , and the trails are now ready to ride.
I had been thinking I had exhausted all the options for any new trails.....well with my friend Gregs help we have been able to find some new segments to add , one being a short but very steep climb, as always all trails have other options should you not want the challenge.
June 9 is the date we will have this years spring ride. We have tried to chose a non conflicting date , hopefully a lot of you will be able to attend and the weather will cooperate. The trail are perfect for riding now ,so hoping they still will be by June.
This is an family event and you can ride all day or however long you want to. The area is kid and beginner friendly ,but you can find plenty of riding challenges for an experienced rider.
We will have a riders meeting sometime between 9 and 10 and then off to ride. If you are new to the trails you may want to get someone who is familiar with them to follow at first as there is just over 5 miles of them. In a few places there have been some changes to the trails and surroundings.
The Bird Farm trails are west of Garnett 12 miles on a 210 acre farm.
Please post ,call or text if you are planning to attend so we will know how to plan.
Address is 12856 nw 1600 rd Westphalia Ks.
My phone number has changed it is now seven eight five four four eight four nine four two.
Parking will be in the big open shady areas up by the road and buildings.
You will never be more than a half to three fourths of a mile from your truck so a water bottle is all you may need to carry while riding.
We will have ride waivers to sign.
When we get lots of rain it gets very muddy as we have no rocks ...so I will post the day before if we have a weather cancelation.
Lunch plans to be announced , but you will need to bring snacks and drinks. The Yoder community store just a mile west of Garnett is a good place to pick up snacks and they make really good sandwiches. (that is where I get the meat and cheese for the sandwiches we provide.)
I have posted links below to previous years ride to give you more info on the trails and taste of the event.
