Due to the impending weather situation tonight/tomorrow the FATS trip has been cancelled. We will look into rescheduling at a later date.
Thanks,

Hello fellow Dirt Divas!!!
It’s time for our first day trip of the year to everyone’s favorite trail – FATS (aka Forks Area Trail System) at the SC/GA border close to Augusta, GA.
Yes, I know it’s a little early this year but we seem to get so busy later in the season and it’s usually pretty warm when we go down there so I thought we’d change it up this year. Let’s hope this change of month doesn’t make it too cold.
FATS is an awesome trail system (classified as an epic ride by IMBA -
http://www.imba.com/epics/forks-area-trail-system ) with 6 loops averaging approx. 6 miles a piece which can be ridden in either direction. The trails are fast and flowy with some climbing but nothing too strenuous and nothing really technical other than a few roots and rocks.
More FATS information -
http://sorbacsra.org/Trails/FATS.htmThese trails are beginner friendly and you can ride as much or as little as you want – totally up to you. Getting back to the parking lot is very easy as it is signed well.
We will be meeting in Rock Hill the morning of March 23rd to make the approx. 2.5 hour trip to FATS (more details on this to come).
Please join us for this fun trip. Friends, partners, spouses, etc. are welcome to join us as well and you do not have to be a member to go on this day trip.
