Take A Kid Mountain Biking Day

 
SABA to Host IMBA's Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day - Saturday, Oct. 3 at Jackrabbit Trails
 
On Sat, Oct. 3, the Southern Appalachian Bicycling Association (SABA) will once again host  young riders, ages 6 to 16, during a youth mountain biking event. The ride is part of a nationwide celebration known as Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day, supported by the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA). This will be the third consecutive year that SABA has hosted this event at the Jackrabbit Mountain Bike Trails.
