What: END 'O' YEAR Ride and Chill Session
When: October 3, 4 and 5
Where: Nathrop, CO (a.k.a. God's Country, the Banana Belt)
Why: Because WE deserve it!
How much: $15.00 per rider for the weekend, to cover port-o-crappers and other expenses. This is also a fund raiser for Tara LLanes Heart of a Champion Road to Recovery Fund. Tara is going to have another surgery and we should all step the F up and see if we can’t donate a few dollars to help offset her GIGANTIC medical bills.

Camp right near the mountain cross tracks all weekend, and you are more than welcome to bring the whole damn family! (Dogs will need to be leashed at all times, not responsible for the antagonizing behavior of the Jack Russell Terrorists)

We will have a couple of grills going so bring on the dead animal flesh! (Not your dogs)

We will have water, but you will need to bring your own beverage of choice if it's something other than water. (Such as clown oil or what have you)

Camp fire entertainment for the evenings, highlighted by the lovely and talented Bruno Ventura on acoustic Mexicutioner style guitar. (We’ll supply the wood, not responsible for the seductive behavior of Bruno Ventura)

This a Chill Ride and Bro Brah Session, no competitions, no manual labor, just riding and having fun. But if you want to challenge your friends, we will have one (maybe two) gates going, a new jumping park designed and built by Mr. A. Holmes Gwin, and we are working on a new mega PUMP TRACK that we hope to have completed by the event. Although VERY mountain cross/dirt jump/dual slalom in nature, there are TONS of miles of XC riding in the area so if you have a significant other that wants to come out and ride some XC then bring it on!

You gottum questions? Please email Keith at keith@rpmcycling.org and he'll reply to anything that isn't inherently dumb.

Hey all you MOUNTAIN BIKERS!!!
We are having an end of the year ride celebration here in Nathrop this coming weekend, October 3rd through the 5th. We are doing this for two reasons: #1 is to get our cycling community together in a non competitive environment, where we can relax and just enjoy each others company! #2 (and more important) is to raise some funds to send to Tara Llanas. Basically you come to the ranch in Nathrop, home of the YETI SPRING SERIES and THE CHALK CREEK STAMPEDE. Camping will be allowed at the Mountain Cross Park where we will have a couple of grills for all ya all to cook on. We will supply water and Cytomax until it runs out. We will also have one central fire ring for evening camp fire songs and what not.

Riding:
We will have both 4x courses open and the slalom course. In addition we have a new jumping park designed and built by Aaron Gwin and a new PUMP track. In addition the XC course will be open for all you endurance folks and we will have maps to some close area single track including the Colorado Trail from Princeton to Cottonwood. Also if the wind is strong on Saturday we will arrange a shuttle ride that can be done on a long travel bike or a DH bike down near Salida.


Donations to Tara Llanes!
There is a 15.00 dollar participation fee to pay for the amenities and all extra proceeds will go to the TARA LLANES RECOVERY FUND! So bring your bike and some food to grill and we'll celebrate the end of a great cycling season here in the Rocky Mountain Region.

Gates open Friday afternoon at 3:00 p.m.and we'll be kicking you out early afternoon on Sunday. If you have question please feel free to email Keith at keith@rpmcycling.org
