Joe Martin Memorial Ride & Community Potluck

Mark your calendars for Cinco De Mayo, May 5th, as we honor one of our late founding members and beloved Gold Beach dude, Joe Martin, with our 1st Annual Joe Martin Memorial Ride!

We have a fun course planned of either a 13 mile (mostly) downhill ride or the full 26 mile up and down ride. The ride is on a gravel road, so mountain bikes or super capable gravel grinders are welcome. We have an awesome prize in store for the winner of the Hill Climb for the 26 mile course: Commemorative Garden Gnome, refreshing beer, and $100 cash! Be sure to sign up soon for this FREE (yes FREE!) ride and super awesome after party/potluck at Buffington Park in Gold Beach. All details can be found on the Official JMMR Page here.
