Mountain Mountain Biking Rides are “riding bicycles off-road often over rough terrain, using mountain biking bikes. Activities include cross-country and trail riding. These rides are for club members and first-time invited guests only and should not include tricks or timing.”
Ambassador rides sponsored by either a charitable organization or a special event ride. The ride leader’s duties are limited to handling the sign up sheet for mileage credit. All riders must sign in at the time of the event to receive credit.
Special for non-riding events that are included on the club calendar. e.g. board meetings, the annual meeting, volunteer banquet, etc.

    Welcome all HBC riders to our HBC Spring Kickoff ride and potluck. This 25 mile ride starts at Burnes park in Hopkins and loops its way through Minneapolis. Some highlights along the way: Theodore Wirth Park, Minneapolis riverfront, Martin Olav Sabo Bridge, Midtown Greenway to name a few. This will be a brisk ride and hoping the winds will die down a tad by then. The current weather forecast is for good conditions.

    Join HBC for a Spring Kickoff event on Saturday, April 27, 9AM-2PM. (Start time can vary depending on what time the ride you register for leaves.)  We’ll meet at Burnes Park in Hopkins at the West Shelter. We'll start off with a social gathering, greeting old and new friends, and enjoying breakfast treats before joining one of several (soon to be) posted rides. If you plan on riding, be sure to register for one of the rides. After the rides (which end around noon) we'll gather again for a potluck lunch. Bring your favorite dish to pass!

    Hope to see you there!!!
