Valley Climbers MC / District 36 Breaking News Release

Napa, CA
The Valley Climbers Motorcycle Club, promoters of the WFO Enduro (Final Round #6 of the District 36 Northern California Championship Enduro Series / Final Round #8 of the Western Checkpoint Enduro Championship), have announced a re-branding of their Enduro Event name for the upcoming 2016 Enduro event scheduled for Sunday, November 13, 2016 near Stonyford, CA in the USFS Grindstone Ranger District.
In partnership with the USFS Mendocino National Forest OHV Management staff, the Valley Climbers have agreed to retire our original legacy “WFO Enduro” event name. For over 25 years, the WFO Enduro has been a benchmark for quality, well managed championship quality Enduro events. Effective immediately, the “WFO Enduro” will now be known as the “Steam Donkey Enduro”.
Many long time OHV riders of the Stonyford OHV area will recognize and understand the historical significance of the Steam Donkey name, which makes reference to a specific, long abandoned 1800’s era steam power unit used by loggers in the area before the invention of the internal combustion engine. If you haven’t yet seen the abandoned steam donkey at Stonyford, ask any Valley Climbers member and we will be happy to guide you to its location.
The 2016 Steam Donkey Enduro will be a Brand Q type Enduro.
Thanks to all our supporters, and we look forward to seeing you Enduro riders at the Steam Donkey Enduro on Sunday, November 13, 2016.
