On our recon ride today, we finally had to come to the conclusion that it would be best to cancel the events for this year. We are terribly sorry to come to this conlusion, but the fire danger, associated road closures, land-manager issues and conflicts with the Hood-To-Coast Run have culminated with a frustrating and fruitless endeavor for both the Rat Dog and Horny Wolf Rides. We don't take this decision lightly, as this is the first time in 15 years we've cancelled a ride. For those of you that have pre-entered, we will cheerfully refund your money or reserve it for next year's Rat Dog. Just let me know your preference (email me directly).
NOTE: to clear any confusion, the Lobos' Horny Wolf is officially cancelled also!
We urge you to help support our loss of events and partake in our upcoming Scaredy Cat Ride (along with the Oregon_DSR's Cascade 150)! CLICK HERE to find out about them!
Again, we are very sorry for any inconvenience!
