Campout: Free camping for Evergreen members
Dark Side Ride: Open to everyone!

Grab your lights, grab your bike, and come spend the evening riding, camping, and hanging out with the Evergreen MTB community.

Here’s the plan:

2 PM — Camping opens for Evergreen members
5–7 PM — BBQ + hangout
7:30 PM — Group ride rolls out from the lodge
After the ride — Casual hangout + prizes

We'll be awarding prizes for best decorated bike and best costume, so bring your creativity and embrace the Dark Side.

We’ll have the Evergreen membership tent and merch on hand, including Dark Side gear and more. We’ll also be serving up grilled brats, chips, sides, and plenty of pre-ride fuel.

No formal registration needed — just RSVP so we can get an approximate headcount for the ride and food.

Free camping is for Evergreen members and is first-come, first-served starting at 2pm. An RSVP does not reserve a campsite.
