RACE REGISTRATION IS SET TO OPEN APRIL 21st at 8:00PM.

We are using Active.com to handle race registration again this year. After billing via Active.com, there will be NO refunds, exchanges or credits given. NO exceptions! If there is an error in billing, contact Active.com. Class changes may be made after registration with Active.com is complete with a $35.00 fee, so be sure you enter into the proper age and class the first time.

Many of you probably noticed the increase in registration fees. Well, events like this just got a whole lot more expensive to produce on National Forest Land, where we are charged a healthy percentage of the gross revenues, as well as charged mitigation fees for surveys and studies of habitat, biology and user conflict.

Keep in mind that none of the funds collected by the Forest Service are used for trail maintenance, restoration or upkeep- that responsibility lies solely in the hands of our local non-profit, the Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship (SBTS).

So with that said, $15 of each race entry fee will go directly to the SBTS, to be used for trail maintenance and restoration work on the Downieville Trail System. In addition to the $15 entry fee, SBTS will receive all proceeds from the prize raffle, silent auction, food-feed, and beer sales at the New Belgium Brewing booth. In all, it should amount to somewhere around $15,000.00 or more, depending on racer turnout and the amount of beer that gets consumed. That's $15k going directly into the maintenance and restoration of the Downieville Trail System.

Money well spent in our minds, and you get to have a damn good time in the process.

We look forward to hosting you in July.
