City Bikes 2006 Season Kickoff Party - April 22 at Schaeffer Farms

Join City Bikes for our Season Kickoff on Saturday April 22nd 9:30am till 2pm at Schaeffer farms in Gaithersburg. Team members will be out in force leading test rides and team member (and Pro downhiller) Hilary Elgert will be leading skills clinics at 10:30 and 12:30. You can choose from a bunch of spanking new road and off-road bikes to try at one of the area’s favorite places to ride. Remember to bring your helmet, biking shoes, pedals (spd compatible will be provided) and driver’s license.

Food will be provided from Powerbar and DrinkMore Water will be supplying refreshing H2O. Test riders will be allowed on specific routes on the roads and trails. We will have cue sheets for the roadies to find thier way back.

City Bikes’ mechanics will handle dialing in your shock setup and getting the fit right before you go out. Helmets and a driver’s license WILL BE REQUIRED for all test rides. See you there!

Schaeffer Farms is in Gaithersburg, and has several excellent singletrack loops covering almost 12 miles of rolling terrain. Trails offer something for all levels, but tend toward fast and smooth hardpack singletrack, with moderate climbs, and a good number of log and ramped log hops. Some technical sections will require beginners to dismount, but intermediates should find most sections rideable and challenging.

Check out the shop website for the full details, including a list of a lot of the bikes that’ll be available for test rides.
