This annual dawn-to-dusk (6am – 10pm) membership drive takes places on the Friday in June nearest the Summer Solstice. It highlights GVLT’s work to expand, improve, and maintain our community trails. Headquartered at Montana Ale Works, the event features bike rides for all ages and abilities on Bozeman’s Main Street to the Mountains trails, with an evening celebration at Montana Ale Works and live music from Jawbone Railroad.
Last Friday June 19th was the Longest Day of Trails. GAS/Intrinsik team members showed up in big numbers to help out in this event that we've been involved in since it's inception. The brain child of Dan Harding from Intrinsik, the event consists of a membership drive for the Gallatin Valley Land Trust. We rode around the trail network, talking to people and leading others on tours. It was a great day and GVLT raised $20K with the help of many generous local sponsors.
Here are a few choice photos from this morning. That was so much fun! The dawn hour, the camaraderie, the scenery and the riding were all just perfect.
