Our Story

“It seems as if all it took was for two people to get excited about mountain biking and it just took off.”

Mia

This about sums up how our club got started.  Two of us traveled around Oregon for a year biking and searching for trails and realized the Wild Rivers Coast area was a blackhole for trails. In 2015, friends connected with friends and found a common passion in mountain biking.  Bikes were pulled out of the corners and dusted off, and our club formed on the idea we wanted trails, miles and miles of trails.
