For the safety of all members, ATRA's policy is:
On single day rides or weekend rides in a large group, there will be no dogs permitted. On longer trips, such as mountain rides, dogs may be permitted on the trail if all riders in your smaller group are in agreement.
Some riding areas require dogs to be on a leash. Please ensure that you are aware of and obey all regulations regarding dogs in a particular area.
