Alsea Falls Team Dirt September 2026 Shuttle Day FUNdraiser

Experience the exhilarating shuttle day FUNdraiser hosted by Team Dirt on September 20, 2026, at the picturesque Alsea Falls Recreation Area. This event not only supports an incredible mountain bike trail system but also celebrates over a decade of dedicated volunteer efforts that have transformed this area into a premier destination for cyclists.
For the past 12 years, Team Dirt has collaborated with organizations such as IMBA (International Mountain Bicycling Association), IMBA Trail School, and Creative Trail Designs to create a world-class trail network. The Alsea Falls system combines singletrack challenges with scenic road climbs, offering something for both novice and experienced riders alike.
The trails are meticulously designed to capture the essence of Pacific Northwest mountain biking, blending elements from renowned areas like Oakridge and Marys Peak with the flowing paths of Sandy Ridge and Blackrock. These carefully crafted routes promise a rewarding experience that will test your skills on descents while providing a steady climb for those who enjoy pushing themselves.
Participants should consider using an all-mountain hardtail or mid-travel full suspension bike to fully appreciate the trails, though longer travel downhill bikes can handle the road climbs with ease. The overall design ensures a seamless transition between technical sections and flowing descents, creating a dynamic ride that will keep you engaged throughout your journey.
Join us for this FUNdraiser where every volunteer's contribution is invaluable. Whether you're new to trail building or an experienced hand, there’s always something to offer in maintaining these trails. Your participation not only supports the growth of this community resource but also contributes directly to the continued development and preservation of local mountain biking opportunities.
