Party Recap and Survey
We had an incredible Spring Member Drive Party at Growler Guys in Ashland this past weekend as part of a slew of mountain bike races, film screenings and events. Together we raised more than $800 for trail work in the Rogue Valley at the party.
The foot-down competition on kids' clunker bikes was an epic sight to behold and is sure to be repeated at the next get-together.
Special thanks to Growler Guys for providing the venue as well as sending back a portion of the sales to our fundraising effort. It's clear IPAs are the standout winner among the MTB community.
We want to know how we can make things even better -- both the event and as an organization overall Please take our 2-minute survey!
