We recommend participating in at least a few of the meals as that’s where a lot of the magic happens. Plus, our food is pretty fabulous. Meals reservations must be made at least 3 days in advance. :) *We encourage you to save money and make your reservations soon - meal prices increase by 15% in the last 30 days prior to your meal*
No Shame in Shuttling!
Saturday’s Group Ride will be the Bearhoti route (Bear Creek, Pinhoti 1, and Pinhoti 2). You can choose to ride out from Mulberry Gap OR take the Shuttle ($16/person). You may want to consider the shuttle IF:
a) You are not comfortable climbing for 45-60 mins. straight on gravel.
b) 4.5 miles and +1,300 foot gain is not your idea of “fun times.”
c) You ride fewer than 15 miles per week
d) You just want to save your legs for the RAD SINGLETRACK instead!
Sunday’s Group Ride will be Pinhoti 3. You can choose to ride out from Mulberry Gap OR take the shuttle to the Top of P3 ($15/person) and do the downhill only.
Please call or email with questions, (706) 698-2865) or reservations@mulberrygap.com.
