    About This Event

    The 3rd Annual Rootrock Mountain Bike Race at Briar Chapel, held on the afternoon of October 17, challenges mountain bikers of all abilities on fun and demanding courses.  Riders will tackle a dynamic mix of smooth, flowing dirt trails, root- and rock-strewn single-track, and punchy hill climbs.  After racing, athletes enjoy a festive post-race vibe with food, great music, a free kids’ race for treasure, and a fun awards ceremony packed with giveaways.

    Complementing the morning 6th Annual Rootrock Trail Run (5K/10K/Half Marathon), Rootrock MTB is the second leg of the Rootrock Trail Races.

    Register for both events and receive a special award and 10% off each race (initiate registration through Rootrock Trail Run and select the Rootrock Trail Races bundle).

    Get pumped for an awesome day of trail racing!
