It’s a Poker Run… With a Twist
Collect stickers, hit checkpoints and play mid-ride (and post-ride) games to earn raffle tickets for rad prizes after the event. The more you explore, the more you win.
Stick around The Landing @ Evil HQ for fun games, prizes, free food and drinks and more after the ride. No matter which route you choose, you’ll roll back with stories—and something to show for it.
Three Routes—Something for Everyone
We’ve mapped out three unique routes to suit all riders—whether you're rolling with the family, chasing gravel glory, or up for a full-blown adventure. All rides start at 10 AM.FAMILY ROUTE: 15 MILES
A fun, approachable out-and-back from the Lost Lake Lot, this mellow route is fun for everyone. Perfect for newer gravel riders, families or anyone looking for a chill cruise through Bellingham's beautiful forested gravel trails. Enjoy plenty of games, photo ops and stickers to collect along the way.
INTERMEDIATE ROUTE: 20 MILES
A solid sampler of Bellingham’s finest backroads and gravel stretches. Expect around 20 miles of mixed terrain with forest views, rolling climbs and enough distance to work up a thirst for those post-ride prizes. No racing—just a proper day out with plenty of ways to rack up points.

ADVENTURE ROUTE: 23 MILES
This one’s for the bold(er). At roughly 23 miles, the Adventure Route takes you deep into the zone—including challenging climbs, technical descents and rugged sections that ride more like MTB territory. Mountain bike gearing is highly recommended, and you’ll want to bring your sense of humor (and adventure) for the spicy descent out of Larrabee. Not your traditional Gran Fundo—but way more fun.
