Winter Mountain Bike Series

Winter Mountain Bike Series

Neal Boyd has grown the Winter Short Track Mountain Bike Series substantially over the last seven years. It's a great way to get out to exercise and compete during the grey days of winter. All abilities are welcome. The course itself is short (hence, the name), fast, and less technical than the courses of the summer series events. Last week they had nearly 200 riders join them on the trails.

The 7th Annual East Blvd Bar and Grill Winter Short Track Series presented by Heartwood Tree Service
When: January 27 & February 2, 3, 10 & 16, 2008
Where: None other than the infamous Renaissance Park Short Track in Charlotte, NC
What: Food, Fun and lots of Fast Racing

For the 2008 Series, Charlotte Sports Cycling has teamed up once again with East Blvd Bar and Grill, Heartwood Tree Service and the Dirt Divas to host the always exciting Winter Short Track Race Series. The winter race series kicked off SUNDAY January 27 and will consist of five races. Rain or shine. We plan to have food, coffee, hot chocolate, an event photographer, and music at all of five of the events.

The series is once again sanctioned through USA Cycling, so the registration is broken down into those who carry an annual USAC MTB license and those who do not have an annual MTB license. 2008 USAC MTB licenses are now available online at www.usacycling.org

this series is great because it is really geared for all levels. Even if you are just starting, I have seen Neal put people in a place they can enjoy the experience and not get killed, or kill someone. See you out on the trails this summer

Totally agree. I did my first mountain bike race in one of his events, and moved up through levels using his mountain and road events, enjoying every one of them.
