Johnny Behind the Rocks Night Ride Kickoff

Sponsored by The Rock Shop Inn.

Fire Update & Ride Relocation: You may have heard about the Weiser Knoll Fire, located roughly 13 miles southeast of Lander near South Pass. Rest assured, it is NOT near our main festival area in town, and we are experiencing very minimal smoke from the fire. However, as a precaution and to avoid the Johnny Behind the Rocks (JBR) area, we are moving the Thursday evening ride from JBR to the Alpine Science Institute.

Thursday Weather Outlook: Thursday's forecast is calling for rain and lightning—which is a huge "yay!" for helping put out the wildfire, but a bit of a "boo" for our Thursday night ride. If the trails end up being too wet, we will cancel Thursday evening's ride to protect the trails. The silver lining? Rain on Thursday will set us up with absolute hero dirt for the rest of the weekend!
We will keep the website schedule updated as well as the Lander Cycling Club Website Calendar Update with the most current info.

The legend returns to its roots! This year, we’re bringing the event back to where it all began for an exhilarating evening of night riding. As the high-desert sun dips below the horizon. We’re trading the midday heat for cool breezes, long shadows, and the thrill of the "tunnel vision" flow. Whether you’re a ASI veteran or a newcomer looking to experience Lander’s most iconic terrain under the stars, this is the perfect way to kick off your Jurassic Classic weekend. Followed up by the traditional late night burgers, brats, & beer grill-out.
