ABOUT TETON VALLEY BACKYARD RALLY
Teton Valley, just over the hill from Jackson Hole and often called the quiet side of the Tetons, is a wide, fertile valley tucked in between three separate mountain ranges on the very eastern edge of Idaho. This has been our home, training grounds, and community for over twenty years, which is why we are so excited to host the Teton Valley Backyard Rally.
This is a chance to welcome visitors and locals alike to attend a community gravel ride and race on all our favorite backroads, starting only a block from my house, with proceeds supporting local trail organizations and bike programs.
Not only do we have amazing Rally routes planned, but the Independence Day weekend in Victor, Idaho, also includes a parade, festival, craft show, and live music, and just up the road in Driggs there will be fireworks on the night of the 4th. If that's not enough, take some time before or after the Rally to camp, enjoy the beautiful scenery, hike or mountain bike on a huge variety of trails nearby, and float down the Teton River just a few miles from town.
Our vibrant downtown has plenty of restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops to keep you happy between activities. Come for the ride, stay for the mountain lifestyle. You might not ever leave.
