FOTW EVENTS CALENDAR

Bikes and Beers!

Wednesday August 3rd we will host one of our classic events with the help of two beloved partners, Switchback Brewing Co and Sleepy Hollow Ski and Bike Center!

We will meet at Sleepy Hollow at 5:30 in the main parking area. This ride is welcome to all genders and a variety of abilities, with break out groups for a shorter intermediate loop to longer more technically advanced groups. These NO DROP rides are aimed to be fun, social and community building events. After the ride we will have Switchback Brewing Co on-site to welcome all those who are over 21 with an apres beer!

Let us know you’re coming by signing up using this link!

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED! The weather will not cooperate with us this time.

Join us for another round of casual and fun racing! This Enduro style event is meant to be a friendly and supportive atmosphere to encourage new riders and experienced riders alike to come outside and play. The event will showcase 2 stages, but the open format allows you to choose to do one or both! The stages will be similar to our last enduro at Cochrans with a few small tweaks! Join us and let the good times roll.

Richmond Mountain Trails or FOTW VMBA Members entry fee of $15.

Non-RMT/FOTW Members entry fee of $20 to support Cochran’s Ski Area for hosting.

If you ride a mountain bike and your pronouns are she/her/hers, you are welcome to join us! These rides are “no-drop”, meaning we don’t leave anyone behind. We generally have two to three groups at every ride: one that runs at a mellow pace on easier trails, an intermediate group and another group that is interested in more advanced trails.

The goal is for everyone to have a good time and not feel pressured, so generally, these rides are social and not “hammerfests”. At a minimum, all riders should be comfortable with climbing, descending, and turning at a mellow pace on forested single track. We will meet at 6:00PM and start riding by 6:15PM. Meet at the parking lot at the end of Economu Road. Usually, the rides last 1.5 hours, so bring snacks, water, and anything else you might need out on the trail.

We can’t wait to see you all!

-A family group ride around the trails at Catamount
-A costume parade on the pump track!
-Pumpkin painting and carving station
-Some of our sponsors will be there with their own stations, you’ll have to wait and see for them!

This will be a great time for 5-Pack members to redeem passes if you have not already! There will also be a casual pace ride for anyone else looking to check out the Catamount network. Come enjoy a day outside with the whole family amidst Vermont’s peak fall beauty!

We’re excited to see everyone again!
