That’s right Ray’s on a Monday. It should not be crowded at all. Take the day off and ride indoors. you won’t regret it. Ray’s is awesome and even better on a weekday when it’s empty.
Meet: Thick Bikes
Time: 9:00 am
Bring: a bike, helmet, pads if you got’em, some loot for gas, food and entry fee

All the cool kids are doing it. Flip that wheel around and bolt a disc-cog on there. Bam! Its fixed. That’s the ticket for winter simplicity. No rear brake, no freewheel/freehub mech to freeze up and a better feel for the limited traction you have. It makes any boring old trail into a new exiting adventure. Going over logs is a whole new experience. Of course you don’t have to ride a fixed gear but you might not have as much fun.
Meet: at Thick Bikes
Time: 6:00 PM
Bring: Fully Charged Lights!!!
