More Info

Truckee Dirt Union’s biggest community celebration of the year returns with two days of trail stewardship, mountain biking, music, food, and community connection in Truckee. Loam Masters Rally brings together riders, trail advocates, local businesses, and outdoor enthusiasts for a weekend dedicated to celebrating and giving back to the trails that make Truckee a mountain biking destination.

On Saturday, riders can join guided group rides, participate in the timed rally lap up El Burro and down Jackass, or simply stop by for the free community BBQ, raffle prizes, music, and festivities.
