⚡️E-BIKES

E-Bike racers have the choice or racing in these two categories:

The E-Bike Open racers will compete on the CDC Pro/Expert course;

The E-Bike Sport racers will compete on the CDC Sport Course;

All E-Bike courses may share an additional stage, designated as the Power Stage, a technical climbing stage, subject to appropriate trail availability and permitting requirements for each venue. 

 

ENDURO LITE
Enduro Lite categories are a short course option geared toward beginners or racers unable to commit to a full course/day of racing. The short course will be a 2-3 stage condensed version of the full course. Riders should be able to complete a comparable ride of approximately ten miles in length and up to 2000 feet of elevation gain to participate. Awards ceremony is typically held within 60 minutes of the last Enduro Lite racer finishing the race.

Volunteer
