The Big Event 2021 — Trail Fundraiser

Join LCTA in celebration and support of our local trails and participate in our virtual scavenger hunt and rides.

Here are the options:

1. Trail Ride Competition. We’ll be looking at fastest times, most trails ridden during the event, and most miles completed — all on our local trails. We’ll utilize the LCTA club leaderboard on Strava to track information between July 16th at 8:00am and July 24th at 4:00pm. Winners will be announced July 24th and will receive some awesome prizes. We’ll post the trails that are available for this shortly before the event here and on our Facebook page.

2. Scavenger Hunt. Not interested in some friendly local competition? You can still participate! We’ll be hiding scavenger hunt items in various locations on our trail system. Find them, snap a photo of yourself with the item — and post it to club page on Strava! You'll receive a raffle ticket for each item you find.

Participation in either (or both) of the options is $35.

Be sure to spread the word!

Celebrate with us on:
July 24, 2021 at 5pm
Midtown Greenspace in CDA
