2024 distances
Mountain biking
20 Mile Race
20 Mile no-lap race, comprised of about 55% fast, flowy singletrack. Although the course can be technical at high speed, a beginner with adequate level of fitness could finish this course. This will be 20 unique miles of our trail system (not laps of the 10 mile course).
10 Mile Race
Features about 45% singletrack trails that will challenge one's bike handling skills at speed. Like the 20 mile, this can be conquered by mountain bikers of any level. Course will split off from the 20mi group around miles 8-9. More details will be posted the week of the event.

This will be 2 laps of the 2-mile course, and will be great for young beginners who want a little more distance.
