About this event
Support the growth and development of young people in the rural Sierra Valley communities by participating in this fun event. The Emily Jane Wilbanks Memorial Fund provides financial support in the form of academic and athletic scholarships, leadership training, and grants to local youth.
This scenic poker run will give you a fantastic "twisty" experience as you tour the mountains, rivers, and lakes of the Northeastern Sierras on your bike. Begin your tour at the EL Toro Bravo Mexican Restaurant in Truckee to get your instructions and your ride pin. Your trek will cover 90 miles of beautiful curving Sierra Nevada highway from Truckee north into the Lakes Basin, Graeagle, and Lake Davis areas. Finish in the beautiful Sierra Valley at the historic Diamond S Ranch. There you'll be treated to bar-b-que, live music, games, and awards in a beautifully restored Sierra Valley Barn. There will also be a silent auction so come prepared for FUN! For a preview, scroll through the photos below.
