Groveland Grind 2018

June 9 • Groveland

The Groveland Trail Heads mountain biking club debuts its first fundraising cycling event: an adventure ride on mixed terrain (pavement, broken pavement, hard packed dirt and gravel) in the majestic Stanislaus National Forest. There will also be a river crossing toward beginning and finish which may force riders off their bikes to cross. If the river is too deep to easily cross by foot, there will be a safe temporary “bridge” for the crossings.

There are three routes to choose from for cyclists of all skill levels in good physical condition. The short route covers 21.5 miles with approximately 1,900 feet of climbing; the medium route is 30 miles with approximately 3,800 feet of climbing; and the big route is 48 miles with approximately 6,000 quad-burning feet of climbing. All three routes are truly unique as they are very close to the border of Yosemite National Park and some sections are on the original road and railroad to Yosemite!

A post ride party tops off the day, complete with food, beverages (yes, beer!) and a raffle. This inaugural event — which stages out of Yosemite Lakes RV Resort and Campgrounds — is limited to 100 participants.
