It's our return trip to Woodhouse Blending & Brewing and we are super stoked to get together again with new friends in the business of yummy beer and food!
We’ll follow our usual format, meeting at Woodhouse before leaving for nearby trails (think Emma McCrary, UCSC & DeLa) in a pandemic-safe manner.! After check-in, our exclusive raffle and big group photo, we’ll break into smaller groups by level.** Plan your return to Woodhouse after the ride and enjoy $1 off their world-class brews!
*As of 3/20/22, we follow CA state guidance for large events: All riders and volunteers must register and must present either proof of up-to-date Covid-19 vaccinations (digital or CDC record) or proof of a negative test result to participate in our rides. Important: What is acceptable as proof? PCR/molecular tests must be taken within 48 hours and antigen tests (rapid tests) must be taken within 24 hours of the ride. Records must have your name and test/vaccine date so they can be paired with your registration. You can find free professional testing near you using the CA testing site locator.
When you register, you sign a waiver releasing us from liability. Volunteers: Please register with organizers for ride-day roles like guiding, not on Eventbrite, which is for riders.
**At registration, you will be asked for your ride level. See Riding Levels definitions OR, take our Ride Level survey
