Can bikes, trails and ancient traditions be the path to a better future? Find out this Thursday eve, 6-9pm at our screening of Patagonia's Fire Lines. We're raffling off a bunch of Patagonia gear to raise funds for our local trail builders Access4Bikes.
The film will roll outside in the beer garden just after 7pm and is 40mins long.
Stay tuned to our instagram for a possible pre-ride from the shop before the event!
ABOUT THE FILM:
In 2021, the Dixie Fire devastated Northern California’s Lost Sierra region, burning multiple towns to the ground and upending entire communities. It was one of an increasing number of mega wildfires in recent years, the result of climate change and 150 years of forest mismanagement. At the time, the Sierra Buttes Trails Stewardship was working on a massive trail network intended to infuse new life into the area’s struggling economy, which once relied on resource extraction such as mining and logging.
The Dixie Fire torched much of that trail system, but also provided an opportunity to reimagine how trails could be used as a tool for fire management, economic recovery, conservation and connection to the places they call home. Now SBTS is looking to practices of the past to create a path to a better future.
