Individuals are encouraged to use their own mountain bikes throughout the program. Participants should wear comfortable athletic clothing while preparing to ride rain or shine. Riders should bring water bottles, an extra bike tube, snacks if desired, a helmet that fits, and riding gloves (gardening/work/thin ski liners also work).
