Join the "night shift" on your fat bike at the Woolly Trails! |
Mother
Nature recently gave us a gift - she blanketed the St. Croix
Valley in 6+ inches of snow, and Winter has finally set in. The
Woolly Bike Club
was ready for the snow, and Woolly's Fat Bike Grooming Machine (known as
"Bjorn 2.0") has been hard at work. The result is some of the best Groomed Singletrack you'll find anywhere! Don't take my
word for it, check out what 45NRTH has to say about their riding on the Woolly trails - or as seen by CBS news / WCCO TV not too long ago.
Do
I have your attention now? Great! While any time is a great time to
ride Woolly, there will be frequent group rides on the Woolly Fat Bike
trails all Winter. Members of the Woolly Bike Club, Cyclova XC
staff, and other community members will be out Fat Biking the Woolly
trails
every Wednesday night at 6PM. We frequently get dinner and enjoy a
beverage afterward as well. Fat bikers of all levels are welcome at this no-drop group ride - we
usually do either 1 or 2 laps of our 12 mile network of Groomed
Singletrack trails.
Summary:
What: Group Night Time Fat Bike Rides on the Woolly Bike Club groomed singletrack

Note
that World Class mountain bike trails & groomed Fat Bike Trails
don't happen on their own. The Woolly Bike Club's volunteers have been
hard at work for 8 years building the trails, partnering with the local
municipalities & land owners, and making things happen. Doing
all of this costs money. Support Woolly by joining IMBA and choose the Woolly Bike Club (WBC) as your chapter of choice - or by making a donation to Woolly.
Questions
on the rides or the gear? Stop on by or reach out to the Fat Bike
experts at Cyclova XC right here in St. Croix Falls. We have more fat
biking expertise, passion, and equipment in stock than almost anyone!
