Scrappy AI Founders Go Dirt-Biking

​12 Scrappy Founders - outdoor and extreme meetups w/ founders and investors in SF, Bay & Seattle. 

---
THIS IS A PAID, OVERNIGHT EVENT.
---

Forget transactional mixers and happy hours.

We are a community of non-boring folks (who happen to be AI founders and investors) who share a love for nature and a challenge.

As repeat founders ourselves we found that dirt biking is the ultimate way to switch off our brains. It’s not about brute strength or being a daredevil. It’s about balance, focus and resilience.

​What is the "Basecamp - Pro Edition"?

This is our advanced Basecamp format. It’s still beginner-friendly, but designed for people who want progression. Two days of riding, coached by legendary Mike Metzger (Godfather of freestyle motocross).

​If you’ve never ridden, you’ll get solid fundamentals.
If you have, you’ll level up, fast.

​The Plan

​Small group (capped ~12).
Two days of beginner-friendly coaching in NorCal with Mike Metzger.

​Day 1: gear + fundamentals → off-road + motocross skills → jump progression (optional) → camp on-site + BBQ with Mike.

​Overnight: camping on the property (showers/electricity/water available).

​Day 2: more coached riding + practice → friendly competition (trophies) → wrap and head out.

​Who is this for?

• ​Founders & Investors: You want a full mental reset with good people in a non-transactional environment.

• ​All Levels: You don't need a driver's license. You just need to be comfortable balancing on a bicycle and understand the concept of a manual transmission (clutch + gears).

• ​Supportive Group: We curate the group to be diverse and supportive. This isn't a "boys club" - we strongly value our female riders and beginners.

​The Logistics

• ​When: Saturday, Mar 28 | 10:00 AM - Sunday, Mar 29 | 4 PM

• ​Where: Mendocino National Forest (exact location sent upon approval).
  We coordinate carpooling.
