Poston Group ride Sunday, September 14 @ 2pm

Mr Tiles is organizing a group ride at George Poston Park in Lowell this Sunday Sept 14 at 2pm.

All skill levels invited. This is a no agenda, no strava, no drop ride. If you have never toured the whole property or you've gotten lost out there, this is a great opportunity to get a guided tour.

Meet at the trailhead kiosk in the lake parking lot, the start of the Lake Loop.  Keep straight at park entrance to the lake parking lot.  If that lot is full there is more parking near the baseball fields.

Sounds like my kind of ride.  I want to try my new full-squish trail bike out there.  I plan to join if I can get away from the family for a few hours.

For those that haven't been to Poston, this is a great opportunity to see the best, least ridden trail in the area.  I've met so many riders that have either never ridden Poston or haven't even heard of it.  This trail is just plain fun, and is comparable to RRT in true narrow, up and down singletrack.  People should take adavantage of this.

That sounds like fun...I'm a huge fan of Poston.  Been riding there since it opened & it truly is a killer trail.  The 4-cast is calling for rain this wknd, but if it holds off I may join ya'll on this one.

I rode there on Friday and it was dry.  Rain last night probably a little muddy now, but Poston is the trail that never closes.   

See you at 2..

Is that true? I was planning on going on this ride but wasn't sure if it will still go ahead with the rain we've had and are expecting this evening. So if it's not raining at the time the ride is still on?

We had good rain Friday night so there may be a spot or few of wet hanging around, but we're good with it. Come on out if you can

Regrettably I must bow out due to a recently developed familial obligation.
Will join the next gathering...y'all have a good ride.

Look foward to checking out Poston.  Looks like small rain cloud should be over and cleared by 2:00

We had a good time, even through the rain. More slick an slop than usual but all and all lots of fun. We'll do again

Be nice if the next one wasnt in the middle of a Panthers game Wink. I ride Poston solo regularly but I would love to see some one hit all those "newer" features.
