Aug 20, 2022 Big Bear trip pre-run.

Every great club trip starts with a pre-run by the Trail Leader(s) and others interested in tagging along. While pre-runs typically end up being a great time, the purpose of these trips is much more important. Trail conditions (and sometimes our memory of past excursions) are subject to constant change. Weather, construction, and other factors can rapidly change conditions. Before a Trail Leader ventures out with a large group of members in tow, it’s imperative that the route is familiar, any potential risk is understood, and we have facilities (turn-around points, stopping areas, camping grounds, etc.) appropriate based on the size of the group. 

On this particular pre-run, the trip Trail Leader was fortunate to have quite a few people to keep them company.

🏔**LRCSD Trail Leader is a volunteer position. We have leaders with a ride range of trail experience – you do NOT need to have competed in a Camel Trophy or be able to navigate narrow trails blindfolded. Interested in becoming a trail leader? Or maybe you’d like to hear more about what would entail, please Email The Board or inquire at the next club meeting!
