Legendary Raffle Prizes: Walk away with more than just memories. Your ticket includes raffle entry for awesome gear and upgrades.
No Rules, Just Riding: We’ve designed this as a self-organized, low-impact meetup. No strict trail groups or DNR special-use hurdles—just get your flag, hit the dunes, and ride at your own pace.
