Register for event
Parts of the course will be open for several days before the event and we encourage riders to come check it out and ride it if possible.
No special bike is required. A standard mountain bike will do the trick. A road bike with tires narrower than 30mm is not recommended. Or, that fancy new gravel bike you bought last Spring...yeah, this is perfect course for that.
There will be short sections of the course where riders will need to push their bike to get over small obstacles or up short hills.
The course will include a mix of terrain including sand, hardpacked dirt, pavement, grass, wood chips, gravel.
Location
Mt. Mac XC Ski Stadium (adjacent to the Canada Games Centre).
