As promised, GATR has put together a fun schedule of monthly rides/day trips for 2010. Some people might want to organize an overnight stay for some of the longer distances, however for the most part all of these can be done in a day from Gwinnett County.
Click through to see what we have planned…
Our Ride Coordinator and Director At Large, Krista Combs is responsible for putting together this sweet ride schedule.
Taking into consideration trail conditions, weather etc. Dates, Times, and indeed locations are subject to change, we will update this page with any required changes as the year unfolds. The closer it gets to each ride we will post more detailed information on directions, places to stay, meetup locations for carpooling etc. We’ll also announce these rides on the forum.
January - This ride had to be canceled again due to the weather and muddy trail conditions.
