Some event details:
1) We will ride on snow;

3) On Saturday;
4) Meet time will be at 3:00 p.m.
5) Heading to the Park Place Pub afterwards, all entry fees will go directly to help pay for gas. So bring money for beer too; and,
6) There may or may not be prizes.

We will meet at the top of What’s Up Doc at 3:00 p.m. for the following route: Up Queen V, Eco-terrorist boardwalks to Ridgemont Rd., into Kid’s Stuff but just until the new Eric’s start, down Eric’s until the exit that spits you out at the top of What’s Up Doc. Strava map here.

There are no rules about bikes or tire widths, come with fat tires, skinny tires, whatever, just make sure you come with a bike.

Although this is going to be a timed race, it’s really just going to be a casual get together for those who like to bike on snow and a fundraiser. So, if you aren’t so competitive, don’t worry about it, it’s all just for fun!

You must be a FMBC member to participate. Please make sure you have your membership beforehand. Everyone will also have to sign a waiver.

Hope to see lots of you on Jan. 24th in Ridgemont.
