Teton Valley Backyard Rally is a community-focused gravel event on the west side of the Tetons and the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Bring your family, bring your camper, bring your bikes, stay for the weekend celebration!

There are three routes available: 100 mile, 60 mile, and 30 mile. Click the link below to head to the official event website.

JHMR Adaptive and Teton Adaptive have partnered to create outdoor experiences for people with disabilities. JHMR strives to provide access to world-class terrain for all guests to enjoy the multitude of activities the mountain has to offer. Teton Adaptive has donated adaptive mountain bikes to JHMR in an effort to get more folks out the Bike Park trails, 90% of which are adaptive approved.

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort will offer free mountain biking to adaptive guests and their support teams. On Sunday, June 29th, from 10 am to 4 pm come lap the Bike Park, check out the adaptive bikes, and grab a drink from the Tin Can Cantina!

Would you like to participate without the commitment of a 5-day epic ride? This is for you!

Welcome in riders, hang out with good people, share in the vibes, sleep under the stars and ride bikes! What’s more to like?

On Saturday, welcome in the riders after they have spent 5 days bikepacking the wild landscape of the Great Rift and Craters of the Moon! Then hang out and listen to the stories from the trail with good food and cold beverages. Camping is optional, but it’s a long trip home for most, so feel free to stay and pitch a tent with us! 

On Sunday, we’ll do a chill group ride from Kings Bowl around 9 or 10 AM.

What to expect: very little elevation gain, but 100% unpaved and rough terrain. Around 10 or so miles, no more than 15. The route is not yet decided and will depend on those interested and Aaron’s level of energy! Here are a couple of potential routes: Option 1, Option 2

Mechanical issues can happen anytime. This hands on clinic with Hops will teach you how to fix a broken chain, patch a tire, adjust your brakes and derailleur, and more!

The Angry Horse is a not-for-profit gravel event* with two courses interwoven in a valley between the Caribou Range, Tex Creek Wildlife Management Area, south of the Snake River Plains. The proximity to these untamed mountains and the Grays Lake Wildlife Refuge makes for one wild and rugged day on the bike!

This year, prepare for a grassroots, self-supported ride with primitive aid only offering water and drop bags. Both the Stud Run and Chestnut Mare will be ridden clockwise this year.

Saturday May 31st.

Mountain bluebirds are back, the bright feathers flashing against the snow covered sagebrush; nothing else signals that it IS time to ride better. The reality (i.e., cold headwind on the way home), however, is that putting in those early season miles in Jackson Hole can be tough to motivate for unless you get some folks to suffer a little with ya. Hence the Mountain Bluebird group ride. With a good 15 year run (minus Covid), the "Bluebird Classic" has become a welcomed event to spring riding as we look forward to summer. We might even raise a little money for JHWF's bluebird conservation efforts.Bring a buddy to help ensure you get home all right. Or, make a friend or two by bringing extra snacks to share. We generally “end” at Pearl Street Bagels.

The Mountain Bluebird Classic has brought riders together for over 15 years (with a brief pause during Covid) to kick off the cycling season with shared miles and a shared purpose—supporting the Jackson Hole Wildlife Foundation’s (JHWF) Mountain Bluebird Nestbox and Color Banding Project.

Why It Matters:

• Since 2003, JHWF has maintained a 6.1-mile bluebird trail along the National Elk Refuge, consisting of 110 nestboxes.

• In 2024, volunteers monitored these boxes and documented 98 Mountain Bluebird eggs laid, with a 79.6% fledging success rate.

• Our color-banding initiative, launched in 2017, continues to yield valuable data on breeding site fidelity, survivorship, and dispersal.

Meet at Jackson Hole High School, we will leaving at 10:00am

Be ready for 40ish miles of fun (route linked below)

Bring snacks and lots of water!

“In preparing the analysis, Forest staff conducted a review of the available e-bike literature, analyzed e-bike trends nationally and spent the summer ground-truthing potential routes to develop an alternative that helped respond to the issues and met the purpose and need,” the press release states.

There will be a public open house at the Jackson Ranger District Office on Thursday, Jan. 30, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. to answer questions about the proposed action, alternatives and the analysis of effects.
