2026 Poker Run Update:
1. It is New Years Day🤔😂. 1/1/26.
2. This event is NOT a race although evey year people think it is a race. Enjoy the day with family and friends. Take photos of your friends if they fall over. Bonus points for a pictures with bikes ontop of riders.💪😂💪😂
3. The goal is a course that will be longer than past years. Plan on 35-45 miles for your gas needs. Distance is always subject to change based on weather.
4. First motorcycle rider out at 9:30A.M. sharp. If you ride a motorcycle and do not want to be behind SXS, it is imperative and on the rider you are in line before the SXS’s leave. If you are hung over and late from celebrating the night before, doom on you😂💪😂💪.
5. SXS will be held for a minimum of 30 minutes after first motorcycle out. If a motorcyke rider wants to ride with thier SXS family/friends know it will be a bit slower for you but still great fun.
6. Ride with a friend and come self contained.
7. SXS people…..check your rear view mirrors often and allow motorcycles to pass as soon as practical. It will make a better experience for all involved.
8. At poker run checks, motorcycles are asked filter towards the front of a checkpoint to keep things moving smoothly.
Looking forward to seeing you at the 2026 Redding Dirt Rider’s Poker Run.
