Every Tuesday and Thursday at 4:00 pm this Fall and Winter we have been gathering out at the Hamby Mountain Bike trail. We have also been meeting on Sundays at 10:00am. More and more people are making there way out to the trail during the week and on Sunday. Last night we had a good turn out about 12 of us were out there enjoying a great December day with temps in the low 70's. A couple of guys took a lap after the sun went down donning their high powered lights. If you haven't had the chance to mountain bike at night it really is a rush.
The Hamby trail is available to any Longview Bicycle Club Member as this is on private land it needs to be a "Club Ride" consisting of at least 2 bike club members to comply with the bike clubs insurance.
The trail is located 3 miles north of the shop on 259 take a left on Hamby Rd go about 1 1/2 miles and take your first right on Big Woods and then take the first right into a private drive pass through 2 gates and follow the trail back to the woods. The trail is well marked in three loops an A, B and C loop the total length of the trail is about 4.7 miles. We have used about a thrid of the land that is available to us and we plan to add some more to it this year. If you have any questions about the trail come on by the bike shop we would be happy to help you.
