GRAVITY RACE SERIES #3
July 26, 2024 @ 3:30 pm - 7:00 pm
This unsanctioned downhill mountain biking series for passionate local riders looking for fun and community camaraderie is back for its 9th season! The series consists of six races held on a different downhill track at Mt. Bachelor’s Bike Park held on Friday nights, July 14 – August 25. Put your skills to the test by competing in all six races or just register for the race day that features your favorite trail. Keep in mind this is a series, so we’ll be crowning ONE overall champion for the fastest combined time in ALL races!
RACE #3 — HOT DUST
Race number three keeps it short and sweet — Hot Dust is a technical single-track run defined by its rooty terrain and rock gardens. From the top of Pine Marten, ride Cone Run to 21 Road and walk up to Hot Dust, or take Last Chance to 21 Road which is a bit more strenuous.
Registration will be capped at 85 total competitors. Divisions are offered for Adult Men & Women, Youth Boys & Girls, and Groms (12 & Under). Adult races will be broken down into Elite and Open categories based on ability. All competitors will race on the same course, but it’s up to you to decide how extreme or enthusiastic you wish to be.
