  1. Postponeshaker 2020

    Hey boneshakers,

    This event has always been a bad idea. Racing on fully rigid bikes when you have spent lots of money buying and servicing bike suspension is kind of dumb. Hosting a bike race right now, even one as small as the Boneshaker, would not be the fun kind …

  2. Boneshaker the Third

    The Bonesaker will be returning for its third year. In an attempt to find a happy medium between the 2017 Boneshaker's moon-dust-like dryness (in July) and 2018's frigid and torrential downpour (in September) the 2019 edition will take place on June 1st.

  6. Return of the Boneshaker

    The Boneshaker is back for its second year in 2018!

    Not much will change from last year's format. It will still be a casual no-entry-fee, no-prizes, no-sponsors, no-suspension affair. It will still be poorly organized. It will still be lots of fun. We will be announcing the course a little …
