Passing of the Torch — North Slope Style:

Join FOCF in welcoming Matt Green to the Board of Directors as our new North Slope Trail Lead! Matt brings an incredible energy and many years of trail work and building experience. He’s been mentored by some of our best builders and is ready to carry on the incredible legacy of build/maintenance work that North Slope requires. If you see Matt out and about be sure to give him a high five and/or buy him a beverage!

It is with the utmost honor and respect that we say goodbye and THANK YOU to Bill Ryan who has stepped down from the Board in order to have more time to spend with his family, his dogs, and outside doing what he loves. The impact Bill leaves at North Slope is massive as he lead build efforts to bring us Upper Bones, Slick Jimmy, Lower LTD, and Upper Octagon. If you’re lucky, you’ll run into Bill out on his bike shredding North Slope — be sure to say thank you and give him a fist bump. Our trails wouldn’t be what they are without his commitment over the years.

Now get out and ride 🤘🤘🤘
