Shine up that vintage sled for a classic family-friendly poker ride, Dirty Dangles style!

Riders purchase ‘hands’ at the trailhead and proceed in style to checkpoints where they receive ‘numbers’. Best hand at the finish line wins. Only riders on vintage sleds will have the chance to win an award. With that being said, all sleds are welcome to buy poker hands and join in on all the fun.

NB: All details to be announced. Please see the FSA website for full details.
