This ride is no joke! Join Evergreen East on April Fool’s Day for a fun ride exploring the trails in the Mackenzie area of the Liberty Lake trail system. Alan Petrie, who has helped plan and build these trails, will be leading the ride. This will be a no-drop ride with some mild elevation. Expect a 4-6 mile ride on green and blue trails and approximately 700-800 ft of elevation gain, with the option for more mileage depending on the group. Advanced beginner riding level and up is recommended. The ride time will be 2 hours so lights won’t be needed.
