🚵🔥 ZINK BIKES — SILVER SPONSOR & RAFFLE DONOR!

A huge thank you to Zink Bikes for donating the frame that became the foundation of one of our most exciting RED TICKET GRAND PRIZES at the 2026 Good Dirt Ride!

🏆 A ONE-OF-A-KIND COMMUNITY BUILD!

This incredible Zink Bikes Vacay features a Troy Lee Designs collaboration paint scheme and a matching Troy Lee Designs Stages Stunt helmet in a colorway never offered for retail sale!

The build includes:
⚙️ Shimano drivetrain
🔧 SRAM suspension
🛞 Delium tires
🚴 Crankbrothers pedals

The estimated retail-equivalent value of this bike and helmet combination approaches $9,000!

🔥 THE LEGEND BEHIND ZINK BIKES

Cam Zink is a two-time Red Bull Rampage champion, winning in 2010 and 2023. At 40, he entered the event's 25th anniversary as its oldest competitor.

Unfortunately, severe weather forced the cancellation of this year's competition before every rider could complete a run. No winners were declared.

Cam's influence extends beyond freeride competition. He helped advocate for San Clemente's pump track, the first of three Orange County pump tracks driven by OCMTBA.

His dedication to mountain biking and local trail development makes this donation especially meaningful.
