Bike & Hike Oct. 18th


October 18th, 2009
BIKE -N- HIKE

We are venturing out on a bike-n-hike to the top of the Tucson Mountains this coming Sunday, October 18th. We will be riding out to the trail head and back home, and in between we will be hiking 10 miles to the highest point in the West (of Tucson). Here are some details:

If you are riding (experienced El Grupo riders only)
· Meet at Club House at 7am sharp
· Ride in your riding gear (whatever that means for you)
· Bring a backpack, fanny pack, whatever to carry food and water.
· Bring extra water bottles filled up and snacks
· Bring other clothes to change into (note: there is not a changing room or bathroom, so you will have to be creative!)
· Bring GOOD WALKING SHOES!! This is a rocky trail.
· You will be putting all of this in our “support” vehicle to pick it up when we get to the trail head.


For everyone, it should be cooler, but PLEASE bring sun protection (sunblock, hat, glasses, etc). PLEASE bring lots of water and a comfortable way to carry it.

We will have some extra sun block and some snacks, but bring food you like to eat while on the move, stuff that will keep you energized! And BRING WATER!!

The hike should take 2-3 hours, the ride each way will take about 1 hour. These are guesses but I can tell you that this will be an all day extravaganza. So please be ready!!! Ignacio will have his cell phone on him at all times, and yes Damiano is coming with us.

QUESTIONS?? Call Daniela (777-8629) or Ignacio (349-1701)
