COMBA hosts bi-monthly rides on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month. The 2nd Thursday will be the COMBA instructional no-drop beginner ride. Please check the COMBA calendar for COMBA and local shop rides:

Beginner Ride for September 10, 2009: We will be riding at Green Mountain, meeting at the N Rooney Rd parking lot. The idea, since light is gone by 7:30pm, is to ride the Green Mountain trail (lower trail) from the Rooney Rd lot to the Alameda lot and then back. We will meet at 5:45 pm. Wheels down at 6:00 pm! The plan is to partake of beer and brats after the ride, so be sure to bring a light in order to see the food and beer! Be sure to look for the COMBA banner!
