Raffle Winner 2026

SDMB is excited to announce the winner of the Cannondale Scalpel 4 mountain bike for the 2026 Bike Raffle!


Congratulations to David Ponchahar of Tucson! David purchased his raffle tickets at the 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo and mentioned he needed a new bike — talk about perfect timing!  We can’t wait to share a photo of David with his new ride soon. He said he needed to replace his current bike so was very excited that he won. It was great to hear that it is going to a fellow mountain bike rider.



This raffle was proudly sponsored by 3 Amigos Tequila, Epic Rides (host of 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo), and SDMB.

We know that there have been access issues with the west side of the Hohokam Trail. The railroad right of way is private property and they have posted no trespassing signs and often block the road with boulders or gravel piles. You should not park there. We have been in contact with the railroad and they are unwilling to provide any access and certainly are unwilling to allow parking along the road next to the tracks. Pima County Natural Resources & Parks is aware of the issue and is trying to work out a solution to connect the Hohokam Trail to the Gabe Zimmerman. The long term solution is to extend Hohokam Trail west to connect to the AZT and the Gabe Zimmerman trailhead. For now folks will have to park at McKenzie and ride Hohokam as an out and back from there, or park near 3 Bridges or Gabe Z and use a combination of the AZT, dirt roads and gasline roads to connect. It is legal to park along Agua Verde Road near Marsh Station Road. However there is not much space there. We are working with Pima county to resolve this access issue. Stay tuned.
