• Stinky Spoke Poker Ride

    It's the short name for the Stinky Weather Poker Ride on January 14th, 2012. A 18.5 mile mountain bike loop where you gather five playing cards in hopes of having a good enough hand at the end to win a prize.  We picked what SHOULD be the worst day of the year for weather (combination of the rainiest and the coldest).  

All proceeds go to the 

Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center. Riders can start anytime between 9 and 10 Saturday!

About Little Bit

This year, we’ll have a second set of prizes besides the ones for the good poker hands.  We’ll put names in a hat for all those that raise $250 or more for Little Bit.  Five names will be drawn for prizes, including a bicycle from Woodinville Bicycle!  This is totally optional, but if you’d like to become a fundraiser, hit this link!  Also, if you simply want to make a donation to someone’s campaign or just a general donation, this is the place to do it.

A History of Transforming LivesLittle Bit was founded in 1976 by a woman named Margaret Dunlap. Margaret had Multiple Sclerosis and found that being on the back of a horse slowed the advance of her disease. From our humble beginnings of one horse and five riders, we have grown to be one of the largest nationally accredited industry-leading NARHA Centers and one of the largest full-time therapeutic horseback riding programs in the United States. We offer Adaptive Riding and Hippotherapy, and serve 240 riders each week with 20 horses and the help of more than 400 volunteers. Little Bit Therapeutic Riding CenterMaking Strides through Therapeutic Riding

At Little Bit our mission is to improve the mind, bodies and spirits of children and adults with disabilities through equine-assisted therapy and to be an educational resource for the therapeutic riding profession, both regionally and nationally.

Our flagship programs—Adaptive Riding and Hippotherapy—both utilize the unique qualities of the horse to affect positive change in the lives of children and adults with disabilities.

These programs provide life-changing physical benefits such as strengthening muscles, preventing bone weakness and joint dislocation, improving balance and enhancing hand/eye coordination. These benefits improve a rider’s overall health, which, in turn, can increase life expectancy.

They also ripple into other aspects of daily living, promoting confidence and independence, improving communication skills and peer interaction, enhancing concentration and memory, stimulating problem-solving and providing achievable goals.
