Question 7

I'd like to become a ride host — what do I need to know?

Accepted Answer

We are always looking for volunteer ride hosts to help lead our group rides. Ride hosts don't need to know every trail, be an EMT, or be a pro rider — you just need to be comfortable using Trailforks (or willing to do a recon ride if the area's unfamiliar) and at least an experienced beginner on the bike. First aid isn't mandatory, but knowing when to call for help is. Bring the willingness to lead, and lean on fellow hosts for local knowledge when you need it.Reach out to a ride host if or contact us if you'd like to learn more!
