Team-Organized Rides

Friday Evening Cuyuna Tour

Friday, August 7 at 6:30 p.m.

Meet at the middle level of the campground. This ride is designed for riders and families who are new to Cuyuna, do not want to explore alone or simply want to join a guided group. Trail selection and pace will be based on what is safe and enjoyable for everyone. The ride is expected to focus primarily on green-level trails. Trail-ready coaches and parents are welcome to participate.

Saturday All-Team Scavenger Hunt Ride

Saturday, August 8 at 1:30 p.m.

The entire team will gather at the middle level of the campground and divide into mixed-age riding pods. Team captains will lead a scavenger-hunt-style activity on bikes. The goal is to explore Cuyuna, build team connections and have fun. There may even be prizes involved.

Campsite Information

The team has reserved the middle level of True North Basecamp, including campsites 1–12.

A vault toilet is located near the team campsites.
Potable water is available at the campsite area.
The shower house is located just down the hill.
Multiple tents may be placed on a campsite, but space will be tight.
Parking is limited, so carpooling is strongly encouraged.

Coordinate With Other Families

Please coordinate carpools and shared tents whenever possible. The campground will allow more than one tent per site, but the team is expecting a large group and space will be limited. Sharing transportation will also help reduce congestion in the campground parking area.
