Bear Creek Mountain Resort is proud to host the
South Mountain Cycles Short Track Mountain Bike Race Series 2008
The short track series is an exciting monthly race series for mountain bikers to hone their race skills or even give racing a try for the first time. Each event features an A race and B race which consist of laps around a marked section of mountain trail usually less than 1 mile in length. Each race is designed to last about ½ hour. The B race is for mountain bikers from beginner to sport level racing ability. The A race is for expert/elite level riders.
After the conclusion of the A and B races, there is a fun race for all abilities. This race changes month to month and may include a hill climb, dirt miss-n-out, and maybe even a downhill time trial.
