Get Ready for the Showdown: The East Fork Fun MTB Poker Run!

Dust off your mountain bike, pump up the tires and sharpen your card-shark instincts—sponsored by Bishop's Bicycles, we are officially inviting you to the wildest four hours on two wheels! This isn't just a mountain bike race, it’s a luck-of-the-draw marathon where your legs do the work and the deck of cards does the talking.

The Great Equalizer: Every Rider Has a Chance!

Whether you are a seasoned pro or a first-time trail rider, this event is built for all skill levels.

Because prizes are determined as much by the luck of the draw as the speed of your legs. A

beginner with a Royal Flush can take down the podium just as easily as an advanced racer.

How It Works: The Gamble

After the mass-start you have four hours to complete as many laps as possible on the 5-mile circuit.

Ride to Draw: For lap every you complete, you earn one standard playing card. The more laps you complete, the more cards you earn and the better odds of a winning hand! All riders will be awarded 1 card with your registration.

The Showdown: At the end of the four hours prizes for each category are determined by the best 5-card poker hand (standard poker rules apply). In the unlikely event of a tie, the rider/team that completed the most laps wins. Your final lap must be completed prior to the 4-hour cut-off time.

Choose Your Strategy

Solo: Just you, the trail, and the deck of cards. Men and women categories.

Duo Teams: Tag-team the course! Only one teammate on the trail at a time—perfect for catching your breath while your partner hunts for that next Ace. Team options are combined men, combined men, combined men & women.

Hang with Friends

The day is so much more than competition. Come hang out and have some fun on your

mountain bike with other like-minded individuals.
