Pioneertown 50- April 20, 2019 <----New Date

I'm surprised about the "no e-bikes" rule. The ride is entirely on forest roads, where they are legal... There were 5 or 6 out there last year.



Hello Pioneertown Riders,

Thank you for signing up for the 5th annual Pioneertown Ride.

Please read the information below regarding our fundraising ride on April 20, 2019.
  • Onsite Registration will be available if you know someone who is still interested in attending.
  • EBikes are not allowed on the ride due to insurance regulations.
  • The optional Jeep Trail from year’s past is not part of the official ride this year.

Parking

Please follow the parking signs. We will have volunteers guiding you to parking spots.

Please DO NOT park on Pioneertown Rd.

Parking on dirt roads is okay, although there are residences near our venue, please respect their property and privacy.

If you registered at the $100 level you'll get reserved parking right by the venue. Tell the attendant and your name will be on a list.



We again will not be charging for parking this year. It would, however, be helpful if you carpool to minimize the impact we have on the local residents.

The venue is at the Sound Stage in Pioneertown. Address for directions -

53598 Pioneertown Road, Pioneertown, CA

Other Info
