Ride Details
Guided Ride at 1pm with Deep Creek Adventure Bureau
Red Trail Teal Group Ride at Deep Creek Lake State Park
Ride Level: Teal (Intermediate-ish)
Join us for a free group ride on the Red Trail at Deep Creek Lake State Park!
We’ll kick things off by reviewing some basic mountain biking skills before heading onto the trail. Expect a little bit of everything: some rocks, a few uphills, and plenty of fun.
This is a “teal” ride — perfect if you’re comfortable on a bike but don’t feel like an expert on the trails (yet).
If you’re ready for a bit of a challenge but still want a supportive, no-pressure group, this is your ride.
Important:
- Not recommended for your very first ride ever
- You don’t need to be fast or fancy — just willing to roll with a few rocks and earn some smiles on the downhills!
- Bring your bike, helmet, and water.
(if you don’t have a mountain bike, let us know) - Please sign the ride waiver: https://x.gldn.io/e/1oAAzRU5XSb
