The Marin County Bicycle Coalition and the NorCal High School Mountain Bike League are pleased to present the 1st Annual Dirt Bowl, a benefit ride to ensure that kids have safe roads and great trails. Proceeds from the Dirt Bowl will go towards the ongoing advocacy work being conducted by both organizations.

The Dirt Bowl will offer both recreational and competitive cyclists the opportunity to participate in a fun and well organized event. The Dirt Bowl will start at the San Geronimo Golf Course in Fairfax, California on the morning of the Super Bowl. You can join the supported mountain bike ride through the famous Camp Tamarancho or plan your own route (trail or road). After the ride, head back to the San Geronimo Golf Course for a BBQ, with local beverages, new friends and the big game!

Participants will be required to raise a minimum of $125 to join the fundraising event. The sky's the limit, so reach out to all your passionate cycling friends and family! Your contribution will include food and drink, a sweet Dirt Bowl t-shirt, a chance to win prizes and a few other surprises. Of course, you are also supporting two great Bay Area cycling organizations!

Fundraising minimum of $125 includes...

• Pre-ride hot drinks and snacks and a BBQ lunch with sausages, turkey burgers, garden burgers, pasta, green salad, potato salad and iced tea

• A commemorative event t-shirt

• Raffle with great prizes

• Grand prize for the rider who raises the most money

• Saddle time with 6-time Leadville 100 winner Dave Wiens!
