Meet-up
Meet-up Location and Directions: 
at the El Rancho Park 'n Ride at 8am (leaving at 8:15am) for those who want to carpool. For those that would rather meet at Vail Pass, we will meet in the lot above the Visitor Center (just off 70) at 9:30am. Ride at 9:45am.
Departure: 
All rides will depart promptly at the time noted in each of the ride descriptions. Please arrive 15 minutes early to allow time to sign in and get ready to ride.
Cancellation: 
Rides will be canceled when temperatures are below 40 degrees and/or trail conditions are obviously too wet. When conditions are questionable, call the Ride Leader for a last-minute check. If you have any questions concerning the route, please contact the ride leader.
Helmets: 
Helmets are required on all Team Evergreen Bicycle Club rides.

Make sure you let the ride leader know you are planning on doing this ride so they know to wait for you.

Begin with a short four mile climb to the top of Vail Pass via Bowman's Shortcut, then it's a 14 mile decent down Two Elk trail. Finish with the ride along the Vail bike path back to the pass. Bring water, food, and clothing for an all day adventure.
