NEW Santa Cruz Blur LT2
It seems like this bike was built for our neighborhood, it's Downieville Tough. We have 50 demos and new bikes too. Come on up and test ride a Santa Cruz Bicycle equipped with Fox Racing Shox on some of the finest trails in the world- if you like the bike enough to buy it, we’ll cover your shuttle and demo fees for the day.


New Smith / Jamison Connector Trail Open!
This incredible high-elevation trail is located in Lakes Basin Recreation Area, Plumas National Forest and is non-motorized, multiple use. It connects the Smith Creek Trail to the Jamison Creek Trail and the Plumas Eureka State Park. The project was funded by a grant through the Rural Schools and Self Determination Act, Plumas County Title II funds. It took the SBTS Trail Crew and numerous volunteers 3 months to complete the trail. SBTS will have an opening ceremony during the Mountain Epic, September 13-14, we hope you'll join us.

TRAIL WORK, over 20,000 labor hours and counting. Join the Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship for a volunteer work day. We had 63 volunteers turn out for the Smith Lake Trail Work Day. For more info - sierratrails.org
RIDE OF THE WEEK!
With the high temperatures, it's time to head for higher ground. The Lakes Basin is where I like to spend my days, riding and swimming. Mt. Elwell is riding really nice, and there's a chance you could run into the SBTS Trail Crew on the north side of Elwell.
Ride and Smile!
Downieville bike shop and shuttle to the Downieville Downhill, plus many more Gold Country singletrack descents. Yuba Expeditions is Downieville's premier backcountry mountain bike shop. Downieville, Sierra Nevada and Tahoe Forest trail maps. Certified Santa Cruz Bicycles dealer and Santa Cruz Bicycles demo center.
Once Hell Ride was complete, the guys at Santa Cruz left behind one of the new Nomads for us to check out, and let me tell you, this bike is sweet. It loves the rocks, up and down. It's light, the bike i'm riding weighs 30lbs, not bad for a bike with 160mm of travel. We'll have demos available as soon as they're available, which is looking like late September.
