Spring "try it" days, 2025: Register HERE
Try-It days are our "open house" and your chance to come out, ride bikes, have fun, and see what we have to offer. All students in the Lower Merion area (LMSD, home-school, and private school), from 6th to 12th grades (in fall 2025), are invited. Parents who ride MTBs are also encouraged to come out and join in. Bring your bike and helmet and join us for some MTB fun! We have two days scheduled this season:
Try It #1: Sunday, April 6th, 9am to 11am
Try It #2: Saturday, May 3rd, 9am to 11am
Both Try-It days are at Belmont Plateau.
Please note that Try-It days will be weather dependent - we don't ride muddy trails. We'll do our best to notify everyone a day or two in advance of each date if we need to cancel or change the date.
