Taking a last moment to say Thanks!

If you weren't able to attend the 2015 JORBA Jungle Jam - well, you missed out. No other way to put it. Picture perfect weather, fantastic riding, great music and food, an amazing group of vendors and sponsors, and out of this world comrades. All in all, just about a perfect day. 

We'd be remiss if we didn't take a minute to thank everyone who made the day possible, and we hope you'll take the time to say thanks as well - JJJ 2015 doesn't happen without them. 

  • All the vendors who very generously contributed swag and/or cash - Trek and Jon Sherwood, for donating the Farley frame, Giant, for going above and beyond to make it to our event, Shimano and John Florey for always supporting JORBA,  Niner,  Mavic, SRAMMountain Creek Bike ParkSki BarnSentenced 2 LifeSanta CruzMorr EyewearDVO Suspension, Town CycleSussex BikeTenafly Bicycle WorkshopThe Bike BondsmanJeff LenoskySixSixOneOne IndustriesSealSkinzNICA, Ruby Rose - and someone who we've likely forgotten (our apologies!). Everyone added value to our day, and we are so grateful you were all there! 
  • NJ State Park Supervisor Eric Pain and his staff - thank you for being our partner in this adventureland we call Jungle Habitat! Not every park can say that their supervisor is on their side - we consider ourselves lucky that we can! 
  • Kathi Krause of Dirt Rock N Root Training for again leading 2 free clinics and a beginners ride - always there to support JORBA!
  • Pat "The Human Vise" Povilaitis and his strongman show - Pat is one of the nicest guys around, and always supportive of JORBA and their work - thanks for another awesome show, Pat - always a highlight to the day! 
  • DJ Conrad for once again providing the most excellent soundtrack to our day - he's da bomb!
  • TTC's own BJ Kisch for being an awesome MC - thanks BJ!
  • Manny, from Video Trail Reviews - again, another long time supporter of JORBA. Make sure to check out his video recap
  • Special shout to Excelsior Lumber for donating the lumber for the skinnies - that was the busiest place all day, with the possible exception of Ruby Rose! 
  • JORBA executive committee, volunteers and members - thank you for your time and commitment! 

That's a wrap for JORBA Jungle Jam, the 2015 edition. Thanks again for everyone who came out to ride with us and support JORBA - seeing everyone out there enjoying the day makes it all those trail work hours worth it, right?
