Let's celebrate bikes and bike riding Enduro rides are nice and chill on the way up followed by a couple exciting timed descents. These are grassroots events that are all about the riding. There will be a cooler with bevies for $3 and some basic snacks for after. Prizing for the overall will be awarded for the finals and a cash purse is up for grabs each night. The size of purse depends on the depth of the field in each category. Courses will be disclosed at sign in, expect to be pedaling for 2-2.5 hrs per night. Finals will be a longer bigger bike party

Lefty, Rhythm & Blues and Turnstyles are CLOSED for the winter to all traffic. By closing them now, we can protect the trail surface and save our dollars for maintaining other trails that badly need some TLC. We want to maximise our trail crews time and work, and preventing damage is a no-brainer. Respect the closures and don’t ride around the flagging tape. And if you see anyone on these trails over the winter, please help spread the word. reporter
