Sherwood Mountain Presents the 2025 RUSTY CHAIN POKER RIDE
The Rusty Chain Poker Ride – 10th Anniversary Edition!
Dust off your bike, lube that chain, and get ready to kick off the events season the only way TORCA knows how — with good friends, great trails, and poker hands as unpredictable as the spring weather in Terrace.
Back for its 10th glorious year, the Rusty Chain Poker Ride is your annual reminder that riding is hard, poker is luck, and combining the two makes for an epic day on the trails with your best buddies. Join the fun on Saturday, May 10th, for a milestone day filled with laughs, leg burn, and a whole lot of bike stoke.
Whether you're fresh out of hibernation or somehow already in mid-season form (ahem, Tyler Wilkes!!), this fun event is for everyone. Ride at your own pace, collect at least 5 cards (or hit all the stations to boost your odds), and cross your fingers for the winning hand at the end.
There'll be prizes, high-fives, and that classic Terrace stoke — you won’t want to miss it.
We want to thank our Official Event Sponsor, Sherwood Mountain Brewhouse Ltd., for making this event possible. You can catch us all there for the after-party!!
