COMBINED WITH BEG. RIDE - Intermediate group ride from Buxton (B-V) trail to Stub

(Due to nobody signed up to ride this route, we're cancelling this location - all will start from the Hilltop Day Use area in Stub - day use fee required).  See Beg. Group ride event for this day.

Enjoy a taste of both the Banks-Vernonia trail from Buxton trailhead to L.L. Stub Stewart State Park and some of the natural surface singletrack shared-use trails in the park (there's more than 15 miles of trails with 80% of them natural surface "dirt") plus a tour of mountain biking only singletrack at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park lead by volunteer trail builders!

We will start from the Buxton trailhead on the Banks-Vernonia Linear State Park trail (the B-V is the longest Oregon state park at 22 miles long).  Once in Stub park, we will ride up Hares Canyon trail and then do the mtb singletrack loop (trail not named as of this posting).  Total trip is about 10 miles.    You should be at least Intermediate level rider - due to the distance and moderate elevation gain involved.  Terrain is beginner level.

There will be a presentation/dedication at the access to mountain biking zone (who knows who ya might see there...?) Unveiling of the trailhead kiosk and revealing the name of the mountain biking singletrack trail! A historic moment for sure.
