BIKE MONTH CHALLENGE

Are you up to THE CHALLENGE? Auburn Trails Alliance is hosting a month-long Biking Challenge, for all Auburn residents. The more you ride throughout the month of May, the greater your chance to win prizes!

For every 5 miles you ride throughout the month, you earn an entry to win prizes from local businesses at our end of the month raffle. You can’t buy these raffle tickets! You have to earn ‘em! Prizes will also be awarded to those who top the leaderboards for most rides, most miles, and most days ridden.

To learn more about the contest, how you can register, and what the prizes are, click the button below!

WALK ‘N ROLL BINGO

We’re sure you’ve all played Bingo before! But have you ever played “Walk N’ Roll” Bingo? This is a fun month long challenge for you to participate in, either by yourself, with friends, or with your family!

Try to complete as many activity squares on our Bingo card as you can throughout the month of May and prizes will be award to those who complete a Bingo (a row across, up/down, or diagonally).

We have Lots of fun planned between 4pm and 8pm!

COME EARLY AND TEST YOUR SKILLS ON A MODULAR PUMP TRACK OR ENJOY FREE E-BIKE DEMOS!

Have you ever been tempted to see what riding an E-bike is all about? Well now’s your chance to come and test some E-Bikes out for free! Thanks to Sacramento Area Bicycle Advocates (SABA), you’ll be able to take a ride around the ARD park path and see if an E-Bike is right for you!

BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!

Before the movie begins, Modular Pumptrack USA is setting up outside the gym and invites everyone to come by and test their skills on their high performance, slip resistant, customized pump track. Are you up for the challenge? Bring your bike and helmet and test your skills. And don’t worry about what to do with your bike during the movie! We’ve got your back! Feel free to utilize our free bike valet program to store your bike during the movie (see below).

Check out this demonstration video of what Modular Pumtrack USA can build!

6PM - 8PM

IT’S MOVIE NIGHT AT AUBURN RECREATION DISTRICT’S MAIN GYM!

We’ll have food from Phat Jerry’s Philly Cheesesteak food truck, drinks, beer and Ponderosa Cider to enjoy while watching inspiring tales of adventure, struggle, and triumph on the rugged road. The path to adventure isn’t always easy, but this incredible set of eight short films will WOW you with their gorgeous cinematography and compelling stories. The films are produced by Filmed By Bike and are appropriate for all ages. Check out the trailer below!

Have Camping Chairs? Bring ‘Em!

100 chairs will be provided for the movie, but there’s so much room in the gym! Think of this like an indoor version of movie night in the park! Bring your camping chairs! Bring your picnic blankets!

FREE BIKE VALET

If you choose to ride your bike to our event, we have you covered! Auburn Trails Alliance is offering a FREE bike valet service.

Bike Valet works like coat check at a club: Arrive at our kiosk and exchange your bike for a claim ticket, and we park your bike in our secure area — we’re the only ones who handle the bikes and access the area, so your bike is safe.

Return later, show us your ticket, and we bring you your bike. It’s fast, easy and secure and it’s free. We can also park scooters, skateboards, one-wheels, etc as long as we can attach a tag. Our staff and volunteers make parking safe and secure so you can enjoy yourself!

We hope to see you there! Come with the fam, come with friends, or come to meet new friends who also love biking, just like you.
