OUR MISSION
is to bring the community
together on Wednesday evenings for some
great local racing: Friends, Family and FUN!
GIVING BACK TO
THE COMMUNITY: Our trails have
taken a good hit last year with fires, flood,
politics and
more. Our benefactors this year will be
FATRAC
and the
Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship.
When you
when you race at our event 20% of our
proceeds will go directly to supporting our area
trail advocates!
HISTORY: The Prairie City
mountain bike races were started in 1995 by a local frame builder, Sherwood Gibson of
VENTANA Mountain Bikes USA. In those days we had 60 to 70 riders each race for
5 or 6 weeks. It was a weekly get
together with your friends for some great fun hometown competition.
TODAY: We are now a 10 race series with
300 to 350 riders per race (we've had up to 567 racers!).
Who knew those many years ago that we would grow into one of the largest weekly race Series in the Western United
States! Our focus is still: Community, Family, Friends and FUN.
Thank all of you that have supported this great event
over the years and we look forward to many years to come.
