STUMP GRINDER DIRT CLUB (SGDC)
To open in Los Olivos, CA on Sunday June 1st, 2008
Utilizes existing trail network built for the Santa Ynez Classic
WHAT: Private location for mountain biking enthusiasts to enjoy their healthy lifestyle sport in a safe location completely removed from other trail users, this is to be a 100% conflict free riding area. With 2 different downhill trails, one super downhill trail, a dual slalom course, a 12 mile cross country course, and miles of dirt double track ranching roads, countless opportunities are provided for riders of all abilities to explore and have fun.
WHY: During a time of constant conflict between other trail users and mountain bike riders, not only in the Santa Barbara area, but all over the US, it just seems like a great full time use of the trail network that we have built here, over the past 10 years, at the Stump Grinder Dirt Club said Mike Hecker, owner of Stump Grinder Productions (SGP) and the promoter of the Santa Ynez Classic. In addition to this use we envision the SGDC hosting training camps, bicycle product launches, bicycle industry functions and other events Hecker added.
WHEN: Saturdays and Sundays from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM for SGDC members and daily non-member visitors. Wednesday afternoons the SGDC will be open from 3 PM to dark for members only.
Where: Stump Grinder Dirt Club, Zaca Station Road, Los Olivos. Directions: Turn off of State Route Highway 154 onto Zaca Station Road, travel north 1.33 miles, and turn right into the entrance of the Stump Grinder Dirt Club. Follow ranch road .75 of a mile to the main venue area, Charlottes Meadow. The SGDC is located on private property, trespassers, when caught would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Fees: Annual memberships are $300 and include a club clothing kit, lowered gate fees ($5 per visit), and other benefits. Daily non-membership gate fees are $30. Carpooling groups of 4 or more, who arrive in one vehicle, will receive a 25% discount on gate fees (reduce per person gate fee of $22.50). Residents within a 20 mile radius only pay $20 per day. Special bicycle club group memberships and special event prices are available. All events are insured via USA Cycling
