FULL DESCRIPTON
Expect shreddy and not-so-shreddy group rides, giveaways, quick bike assessments from FTW mechanics at Sapphic Wrench, a SRAM-led components clinic with hands-on learning and questions encouraged, demo bikes from our friends at Otso, and quick teaser clinics with Cuyuna’s local guides and skills instructors at Sure Shift.
We’re excited to welcome Little Bellas, who will be hosting creative activities like helmet decorating, a “Generate Your Trail Name” booth, DIY Trail Yoga, and a Bigs & Littles Pump Track Ride. Bring the young riders in your life out for a day of fun, creativity, and movement alongside a supportive community. Little Bellas participants can also pick up their summer program packets at the event.
Cuyuna Outfitters will be on site with a camp lounge serving as Basecamp for the day, a relaxed place to hang, refuel, and connect between events. We’ll also have a customize-your-own bandana station, where you can choose from a few designs and decorate it as you like.
We’ll wrap the day with an Après Q&A hosted by Red Raven, a casual post-ride social with special guests where we’ll get real about bikes, confidence, and doing hard things on and off the trail.
Whether you’re just finding your flow, riding alongside a kiddo, or chasing technical lines, this day is about lifting each other up and celebrating the power of bikes. Come for the trails, stay for the stories, and head home with red-stained tires and a smile on your face.
Mark your calendar, bring your crew, and let’s make some red dirt magic. Keep your eyes peeled for announcements and a full schedule.
