Kern River Valley Gathering 2009
October 30 - November 1, 2009
Bionicon may have lost a building and a bunch of bikes, but we haven't lost our sense of a good time and good people. So come and join us for some great fall riding in Southern California! This is the third annual gathering.
Located in and around the Scenic Kern River Valley, just three hours drive from Los Angeles. The valley is home to many incredible trails such as the Cannell Trail, Just Outstanding, Dutch Flat and the Kern Canyon trail, just to name a few. There are trails for any type of rider here but the area is best know for its moderate to challenging all mountain trails.
Bionicon will be hosting a free BBQ to all participants and we expect to have a limited number of demo bikes available to test on any of the rides.
Please RSVP for the BBQ with the number of guests and request Carnivore or Herbivore fare so there is enough food for everyone.
BBQ RSVP at http://www.socaltrailriders.org/foru...day=2009-10-30 or by emailing bbq@bioniconusa.com.
This very fun event is organized by riders for riders, is very low key and all about the fun of riding in cool new places with cool new people and old friends. If you have questions, would like to lead a ride or help in any way please contact paul@bioniconusa.com
