HELMETS ARE REQUIRED. (yes, I am yelling at you)
This event has grown to a point where we need to add some infrastructure. This unfortunately requires that we charge a small fee to pay for things such as ambulance, traffic control, insurance, and real actual rest stations with real food and volunteers plus the ever critical portojon. You must be registered to ride (event shirts are offered at an additional cost) at https://www.raceentry.com/races/spokes-and-sparklers-ride-presented-by-the-bear-mountain/2025/register
See you on the 4th!!
