How do I participate?
Please fill out the following form to sign up: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScPxC93cwTidTGMAJuJW19am8WcEBYwVrLrlTNfCo2ERkbbnA/viewform?usp=header
We have a cap of 30 entries this year so sign up early to secure your spot. Day-of sign up accepted but not guaranteed. Then, show up with your chili (already made) in a slow cooker and bring a serving spoon @ 3:00pm on Saturday January 31, 2026.
Is there an entry fee?
No, not officially. We are raising money for the Waukau Dam MTB Trail System, so we ask that attendees donate if they feel inclined to do so.
Can I just eat and vote?
Yes, yes you can. We encourage it!
Do I need a fatbike to join the ride?
Depends on where we ride. Weather and trail conditions will dictate. If we ride @ Waukau Dam or any other trail and there is snow on the ground, yes. Tire width must be 3.8″ or wider!
Will there be other refreshments? If so, cost?
Yes. We'll provide water, and beer will be provided by Fifth Ward. No charge, however donations are HIGHLY encouraged, as all proceeds will be going to further construction efforts at the Waukau Dam MTB Trail System.
What does chili have to do with bikes?
It doesn’t matter! We just want to bring cyclists together during the cold time and try to generate some $$$$$ to donate to the trail project out at Waukau Dam.
Any other questions, please contact the shop!
