WMBA Fat Tire Festival 2003
Events this year include "The Wheelie Race" , Manufacturer Demos and and much much more....
The Hickory & Tweed Cannondale Bicycle Poker Rally
The Hickory & Tweed / Cannondale Bicycle Poker Rally - Have fun, win great prizes, and benefit two great organizations! Contestants ride the trails stopping at different stations to pick up a playing card. The more stations you visit, the more cards you get. Build the best Poker hand you can and then meet back at Rally Central to see how you’ve done. This is a great event for riders of all skill and fitness levels. All participants receive a commemorative T-shirt and a chance to win a Mountain Bike, courtesy of Hickory & Tweed and Cannondale, and the knowledge that they’re supporting great work.
Sign Up for the Poker Rally at the main WMBA Tent on the day of the Festival
