LEADVILLE TRAIL 100 MTB
2019-08-09 - 2019-08-10 | leadville, 400 Harrison, Leadville, 80461, USA
As one of the most well known mountain bike races on earth, getting into the Stages Cycling Leadville Trail 100 MTB has always been difficult. LT100 MTB Qualifiers are long and tough, with lots of climbing. They are similar to the classic course at Leadville in that they avoid technically demanding single track trails and consist mainly of rugged jeep roads of gravel and dirt. A qualifier event could not only gain you entry into the LT100 MTB, but it could also boost your corral starting position in the Race Across the Sky!

Marquette County trails are littered with rocks, roots, and punchy climb after punchy climb hammering you into submission.

There are no restrictions on the specific tire size allowed. The Birkie groomers are some of the best in the world and have the goal of providing a firm surface to ride on for the races. However, we cannot control the weather and the course conditions can vary widely, from hard packed to soft powder. Just like in the Birkie Ski race, Fat Bike Birkie participants are free to choose different equipment based on the conditions of the course. We recommend that participants be prepared to race in any course condition, on a bike equipped with at least 3.5 inch wide tires.
E-bikes are not allowed for any event of the Fat Bike Birkie.

The U.S. Pro Cup Mountain Bike Series is returning to Fayetteville, Arkansas for the third consecutive year with four jam-packed days of cross-country mountain biking racing, qualifiers, and classes for all levels. The action happens at Centennial Park this spring, April 12th-16th, 2023!
The road to Paris runs through Fayetteville, Arkansas this year, where Olympic hopefuls will gather for the opportunity to score heaps of valuable qualifying points at the 2023 U.S. Pro Cup. Though stakes are high for those looking to qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics, this UCI sanctioned event will feature 4 days of competition and fun for beginners, amateurs, and professional riders alike! With events taking place over a five-day period, particpants can look forward to a stacked schedule of cross-country and short track cross-country races. There will even be classes for all ages and abilities offered so that anyone in the community can get in on the cycling action.
The inaugural event was held over back to back weekends in April of 2021 – and featured a majority of Team USA in attendance ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The 2022 U.S. Pro Cup race in Fayetteville, AR built on that legacy, and organizers expect the same from this year’s event as the only hors categorie UCI XCO (officially sanctioned cross-country mountain bike race) in North America for 2023. This year’s races will superbly highlight the deep field of US and international riders headed to Fayetteville to compete, a group composed partly of past and future Olympians, national champions, and international titlists.
