About the Event

Join us for a fun Halloween-themed benefit ride along the Ghost Town Trail loop on October 10th, 2026!

While the ride is free, please register in advance — it helps us plan and ensures you’ll be first to hear about next year’s event!

This is a self-supported, ride-at-your-own-pace event starting at 11:00 AM at the YPCC Ebensburg Trailhead. We’ll ride the full 35-mile loop and finish back where we started. (The loop itself is 32-miles, but the extra ride to-and-from Ebensburg makes it 35-miles total!)

Halloween themed colors, makeup, and costumes are encouraged — just make sure your costume doesn’t interfere with bike safety. Helmets are encouraged, and a fun attitude is a must!

After the ride, we’ll all meet up for post-ride food and drinks at one of our favorite local spots, Coal Country Brewing!

This ride is free, but we kindly ask that riders make a donation to the CCCRA Friends of the Trails program — helping keep the Ghost Town Trail clean, beautiful, and accessible for everyone.

While this is not a race, we recommend that riders are able to carry their own water and food and maintain a pace of at least 8 mph, or be able to complete the loop within 5 hours.
