Bishop's Bicycles presents the East Fork MTB Poker Race
About the Event
Experience the Thrill of the East Fork Fun MTB Poker Run! Prepare to embark on an adrenaline-fueled adventure that blends mountain biking with card games. Sponsored by Bishop's Bicycles, this unique event promises excitement for all skill levels. Join a Community of Enthusiasts: Whether you're a seasoned rider or just starting out, the East Fork Fun MTB Poker Run offers something for everyone. The race combines physical endurance with a touch of luck, ensuring that every participant has an equal chance to shine. The Race Format: Beginners and experts alike can compete on a 5-mile circuit designed to challenge both newbies and seasoned cyclists. Participants will accumulate cards based on the number of laps completed: one card per lap is given at registration, with additional cards earned for each subsequent lap ridden. Card Collecting and Showdowns: As you pedal through the course, collect as many standard playing cards as possible by completing laps. At the end of four intense hours, use your collection to form a 5-card poker hand—standard rules apply. The highest-hand wins in their respective categories; however, if there's a tie, the rider who completed more laps takes home the prize. Race Categories: - Solo: Men and women can compete individually. - Duo Teams: Perfect for sharing the load and catching your breath mid-race with a teammate. Socializing and Fun: The day isn't just about racing; it’s also an opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts. Bring friends, enjoy camaraderie, and make new cycling buddies during this vibrant event.
