Friends and members of Good Times Ski Club join fellow outdoor enthusiasts from Warren and Youngstown Ski Clubs for group rides on local trails every Thursday evening, April through October, weather permitting.
We meet up at 5:45 p.m. and start riding at 6:00, generally riding 16 to 20 miles along beautiful, paved bike trails. Following the ride we meet at a local restaurant for refreshments and comradery.
During April, all rides take place along the Metro Parks Trail. We meet at the Kirk Road Trailhead and ride either north or south from that point.
Locations for rides May through September alternate between four or five local bike trails, depending on the number of Thursdays that month. Biking flyer available on our Facebook page and that of Youngstown Ski Club.
