More info: What’s a Wheelhopper? We are an informal group of mountain bike riders fashioned after the infamous Hash House Harriers groups for runners. Like the runner's Hash House Harriers groups which have become so popular all over the world, including North America, we encourage those with half-a-mind to join to do so. Likewise, Wheelhopper Hash House Harriers also greatly enjoy a cold beer (or soft-drink) after our hares-and-hounds style rides.

Our trails favor advanced, recreational, and beginner riders: women and men. We mark each course with biodegradable baking-flour, including false-trail marks to slow down those hard core riders and enable most of the riders to finish the course together. Rides are mostly off-road and generally 8 to 15 miles for the advanced and recreational riders and sometimes we have an alternate trail of about 3 to 6 miles for the beginners.

We encourage helping one another along the course. This is not a race; but you may ride as hard or easy as you like. (Bring a whistle, bell, or other noise maker to let others behind you know which direction to go.) We also appreciate and respect the land, people and property that we pass. For $6.00 you get the trail, ride, beer and soft-drinks, munchies, and the camaraderie with others of half-a-mind.

Wheelhopper Boise meets on the 2nd –or- 4th Thursday of the month during the winter, and the 2nd –and- 4th Thursdays the rest of the year. www.wheelhopperboise.com
