“For the fifth consecutive year, Cane Creek Cycling Components is working to support the well-being and sustainability of the Pisgah National Forest. Pisgah needs our help more than ever! Over the last year landslides, wind damage, and excessive rainfall due to tropical storms have devastated the Pisgah Ranger District.”
“In conjunction with The Pisgah Conservancy (TPC), several regional businesses, and a generous group of supporting sponsors, Cane Creek was able to build a very special bicycle with a noble purpose. This year’s Gravel-specific bike will be raffled with all proceeds directly benefiting the Pisgah Conservancy. Their mission is to support the conservation and sustainability in the Ranger District of the Pisgah National Forest, representing all of the user groups that love and advocate for the district. Over the past 4 years The Pisgah Project Raffle has been able to raise over $130,000 – With these funds, the TPC has been able to continue its work to support recreation, maintain and develop trail systems, protect the watershed, improve the habitat of native species and continue to educate users on conservation principles.”
This year’s Pisgah Bike is made possible by donations from Cane Creek Cycling Components, Industry Nine, Thomson Bike Products, Continental Tires, fizik and Crank Brothers.
New for 2021 – A one of a kind Gravel bike, built up to be the perfect bike for exploring the vast gravel network found within the Pisgah National Forest.
