Support our trails in the Pisgah National Forest and win a $9,000 Thomson titanium gravel bike. Cane Creek, Industry Nine, and several other companies built this beauty to raffle off in support of the rebuilding efforts of the Pisgah Conservancy. And after a few years of damaging floods and rain, the Pisgah Ranger District needs your help…

For the fifth consecutive year, Cane Creek has put together a special bike to raffle off in support of the Pisgah National Forest, which needs our help more than ever. Over the last year, tropical storms and the resulting landslides and wind damage have devastated the Pisgah Ranger District. Just this past summer, many trails and bridges were badly damaged, destroyed, or closed from the 14″ of rain that fell and the 100-year flood that ensued after tropical storm Fred rolled through. Find the full press release below with build details about the bike and how you can get raffle tickets and potentially win it.

Their mission is to support the conservation and sustainability in the Ranger District of the Pisgah National Forest, representing all of the user groups that love and advocate for the district. Over the past 4 years The Pisgah Project Raffle has been able to raise over $130,000 – With these funds the TPC has been able to continue their work to support recreation, maintain and develop trail systems, protect the watershed, improve the habitat of native species and continue to educate users on conservation principles.

This year’s Pisgah Bike is made possible by donations from Cane Creek Cycling Components, Industry Nine, Thomson Bike Products, Continental Tires, fizik and Crank Brothers.
