512RIDES

Hey, I'm Liam Bruner!

Thank you for coming to my website. I am a 14 year old, NJHS member and Bowie Freshman athlete in Circle C . For the past two years, I was a Gorzycki football player, mid-distance track athlete, and a rider for The Bulldogs Mountain Bike Composite Team. I love to be outdoors!

During the quarentine, my mom, bother and I rode these trails twice a day to get outside and move our bodies. While we were on the trails, I realized that I could lead kids who want to learn how to ride trails like me.

For the past two Summers, I lead kids through the Circle C trail system to raise money to buy sports equiptment for my upcoming mountain bike season.

My brother, Noah Bruner who is entering 7th grade at Gorzycki Middle School, is also helping me lead the younger riders this Summer as well. This is our second year to work together.

Would you like to ride with us?

Trail Riding Risks:

Trail riding is so fun but has some risks. Most every rider falls off the bike, that is how you improve as a rider.

  • Falling off the bike

  • Potential breaks or sprains

  • Bug bites

  • Texas native snakes

  • Allergic reactions to plants like Poison Ivy

  • Dehydration or overheating in the sun

If there is an emergency, we will call 9-1-1 first, give location coordinates from our iPhones and then call the parent.

Meeting Spot:

Meet up under Escarpment Blvd bridge in the large drainage area. This is where we will enter and exit the trails. Parents can park on the west side of Escarpment BLVD and ride down the hill and under the bridge. Drop off is 8:40am and pick up is 10:40 in the same spot. We will eat a small snack that you provide your rider, during the ride.
