TNGA Fall Reunion Weekend at Mulberry Gap
September 26–28, 2025 | Ellijay, Georgia
The dust has settled, the legs have (maybe) recovered, and we’re ready for round two—not of racing, but of reconnecting. The TNGA Fall Reunion Weekend is your chance to kick back, ride a little (or a lot), and share stories with your fellow TNGA family.
Whether you’re a past or present rider, a friend or family member, one of our incredible volunteers, or someone who hopes to tackle the TNGA in the future—this weekend is for you.
What to Expect: This is a laid-back gathering in the woods at Mulberry Gap. Come ride, relax, and reconnect with your favorite bikepackers. There’s no set race course this time—just optional rides, conversations, and plenty of time to enjoy the mountains together.
Highlights may include: (It kinda depends on what you tell us you want to see) :)
Community Rides: Hop on the Pinhoti and surrounding trails for unloaded spins with friends.
Campfire Conversations: Swap stories, share strategies, and trade a little good-natured smack talk with your favorite TNGA bufs.
Panels & Q&A: Casual discussions on nutrition, gear, strategy, and prep for future TNGA attempts.
Meet & Greet: If you’ve been curious about TNGA but haven’t lined up yet, this is your chance to learn from veterans.
Downtime: Plenty of time to relax, explore, and soak up the fall mountain vibes.
