Shuttle update for 8/14 to 8/16/2026

It’s too hot to pedal.

Good thing we’ve got a shuttle. 😎

Grab some shade on the ride up, save your legs for the good stuff, and let gravity handle the trip back down.

Don’t worry—your arms and legs will still be burning. Just for a much better reason.

Ride more. Climb less. Don’t waste the weekend.

Shuttles are running at Shepherd Mountain Bike Park. Come see why more riders are making their first trip to Shepherd—and coming back for another lap.

Summer’s winding down. Your excuses should be too.

"Don't worry...I ride Shepherd!" We're proud to hear riders say this!

But, phrases that make our shuttle drivers pucker...

“Don’t worry, I ride motocross” or “Don’t worry, I ride out West.”

Cool. Pre-ride it anyway.

About 90% of the riders who underestimate this mountain leave early.

Which makes us wonder


Do other parks worry when someone says:

“Don’t worry, I ride Shepherd Mountain”? đŸ˜”â€đŸ’«đŸ€Ł

Pre-ride. Re-ride. Then free-ride.

Ride here. Ride anywhere!

Shuttles are running! Come find your kind of trouble.

The forecast might get a little moody—but Shepherd sheds water well, and honestly, the dust could use a drink. Shuttles keep rolling through the rain; we’ll only pause if lightning decides to join the ride.

Pre-ride. Re-ride. Free-ride.

7/26/26 URGENT UPDATE

Yeah
 It’s Too Hot.

Today’s heat is not the fun kind of sketchy.

For the safety of our staff, shuttles and the Wheelhouse are closed today. We also strongly recommend skipping strenuous outdoor activity because no lap is worth getting cooked on the mountain.

Stay cool, hydrate, and save the send for another day.

Typically we run with heat indexes up to 105...Feel like temps of 111 are just insane!

The group chat has spoken: load the bikes, grab the crew, and point the truck toward Shepherd Mountain.

The rocks are waiting. www.shepherdmountainbikepark.com

July, 2026
At 85 years young, Mr. Martin from Arcadia, MO just hiked Steep—the most challenging hiking trail at Shepherd Mountain.

And Steep earns its name. The first stretch feels like it goes straight up, climbing more than half the mountain’s elevation before finally leveling out for a breather and a more gradual push to the top.

Mr. Martin did it on his own. 600’ elevation gain, 3 mile loop.

No excuses. No shortcuts. Just grit, determination, and one impressive climb.

Here’s to you, Mr. Martin! You’ve officially raised the bar for the rest of us. đŸ‘â›°ïž
