- 24 Hours of Adrenalin - The Spirit of Mountain Biking
Like the name says, 24 Hours of Adrenalin� is a real rush - a gut wrenching, heart-pounding, blood surging experience. But, if you think it's just about tearing up the terrain on two wheels, leave that idea in the dust. Dubbed the "Woodstock of Mountain Biking", the event is really more of a happening - the ultimate outdoor weekend.
Come on out for a weekend of fun, frivolity and fitness. 24 Hours of Adrenalin� events get to the root of mountain biking and how it started. Join others who unite in the forest to experience life away from the concrete jungle. Push your limits and ride solo. Not there yet? Create a team of up to 10 people, and you'll cut down on the number of laps you ride, and increase your camaraderie time. It's your ride,you can make it what you want.
Upcoming Events
- Aug 31/Sept 1 WORLD SOLO 24 HOURS OF ADRENALIN� CHAMPIONSHIPS
Silver Star Mountain Resort, Vernon, British Columbia
- Sept 14/15 Summit at Snoqualmie, Snoqualmie Pass, Washington
- Sept 28/29 Hurkey Creek Park, Idyllwild, Southern California
