We need a minimum of $10,000 to cover fundraising expenses, buy our base-build mountain bike, and still reinvest in the trails—only then does the giveaway kick off. Raise $40,000, and everyone who enters will be in the running for a Pivot Trailcat SL Team XX Eagle Transmission Neo (MSRP $13,000)!

Trails connect us to nature, build healthier communities, and spark adventures. But behind every mile of singletrack lies months of planning, heavy equipment, hands-on labor, and ongoing upkeep. Each year, inflation and rising fuel and materials prices push those costs even higher.

Building and maintaining one mile of trail costs $57,500 today—and climbs 3–5% annually.

Please donate and share. Your support doesn’t just win you a chance at a new bike—it makes the trails we all ride possible.

  • Enter to win the Pivot Trailcat SL

  • Share the giveaway with your riding crew

  • Drive the fundraiser to the dream build level

Let’s build the future of Sacramento to the Sierra—one trail, one rider, one dream bike at a time.

Ride the Dream. Build the Trails.

Auburn, Folsom, and the surrounding Sierra foothills aren’t just scenic—they’re legendary. With rugged singletrack, endurance-testing climbs, and world-class events like the Western States 100 and Auburn Enduro, this region is a magnet for riders from across the globe. Whether you're chasing podiums or carving out solo adventures, these trails deliver.

Now’s your chance to give back to the dirt that gives so much.

Introducing the Base Build to Dream Build Giveaway—a one-of-a-kind fundraiser where the final donation total determines the build level of the bike you could win. Every dollar raised goes directly to protecting, growing, and maintaining the local trail network. The more we raise, the better the build.

At the heart of it all is the Pivot Trailcat SL—a bike engineered for Auburn-Folsom terrain. Light, fast, and built to shred, it’s your ticket to train hard on local trails and race fast in places like Downieville. With top-tier components like NEO Fox suspension, SRAM Transmission XX drivetrain, and carbon wheels, the dream build is podium-ready.

The 60 Day Fundraising Challenge

Our mission has always been simple: to protect, build, and maintain the incredible trails we call home. 

For over 30 years, FATRAC has been fueled by people who love to ride. Our roots are in the dirt—hand-built trails and a shared vision for a better mountain biking community. We're launching the 60-Day Challenge to ride into our next chapter and raise $40,000.

This is more than a fundraiser; it's a way for all of us to invest in the future of our trails. As a thank you for your support, we're giving away a 2025 Pivot Trailcat SL. The theme is simple: the more we give, the more we get. Every donation brings us closer to a higher build spec and an even more incredible bike for one lucky winner. Every donation gets us closer to our goal and enters you to win the ultimate bike. Each $5 is an entry; the higher your donation, the more entries you get, the higher your chances of winning! And the more we raise, the better the bike's build spec gets, turning it into a true "dream ride." See the build specs below.
