Register for the 2023 Canadian XCM MTB Championships
Cycling Association of Yukon (CAY) in collaboration with All Mountain Productions and Consulting Inc. and sanctioned by Cycling Canada, are excited to announce that registration for the 2023 Canadian Cross-Country Marathon Mountain Bike Championships is now open.
From September 1 until September 3, on Mt McIntyre trails in the heart of Whitehorse, Yukon, CAY will host many of Canada’s top cross-country racers and riders, all duking it out for the coveted maple leaf jersey and National Champion title. The excitement doesn’t stop there though.
Throughout the week leading up, CAY, and local clubs and partners will be hosting a multitude of fun and exciting bike events. From a two-part gravel and mountain bike event, to a shuttle night, to the post-Championship gravel recovery ride, there will be plenty of great bike activities going on in and around the event week.
As a Cycling Canada sanctioned event, important UCI points will be on offer for both the Elite Women’s and Men’s fields. Taking on a total race distance of just over 90 km, including over 1500 m of climbing, the stage is set for the fastest racers in Canada to put it all on the line in their pursuit of glory.
This event isn’t just for the pros though, ‘challenge categories’ (unsanctioned categories) will give all riders from U13 right through to the Masters 65+, an opportunity to put their fitness to the test on this world-class course. With a total of 18 challenge categories, there is something for everyone.
