Description

Get ready for an unforgettable experience as we light up the night sky with our first Adaptive MTB night ride! Join us on Friday, April 5th, and Saturday, April 6th, for an adventure like no other. We've teamed up with Outbound Lighting, who will be providing demo products to illuminate our way through the darkness.

Our meeting point will be at the Dupont Guion Farms trailhead, where we'll gather before embarking on our journey. Our goal? To catch the breathtaking sunset at the Dupont Airstrip, surrounded by the beauty of Dupont State Forest.  The mostly gravel route will be about 10 miles in length. 

But that's not all – we're taking this night ride to the next level. Several of our fellow riders will be bringing backpacking stoves and kettles to warm up water for Tea and Hot chocolate. Picture yourself sipping on a warm beverage while watching the sun dip below the horizon – pure magic!

**Things to Bring:**
- Your own hot chocolate or Tea supplies to enjoy during the ride (we will prep hot water mid ride to distribute).
- A container or cup to drink your hot beverage.
- Additional layers to stay warm as we watch the sun go down.

Don't miss out on this extraordinary opportunity to experience the thrill of a night ride and the serenity of a sunset in the great outdoors. See you there!
