MTB Short Grind

Both the long (32 miles) and short (19 miles) mountain bike race courses utilize the most scenic and challenging terrain in Minnesota’s Iron Range.  Expect tough climbs, fast descents, varied terrain with rocks, roots, creeks, & plenty of passing opportunities.  This race will test your skills as you wind through cross country trails, ski runs, snowmobile trails, and rugged mining roads.  Whether you’re a first timer, a weekend warrior, or a pro racer, you can count on having an amazing experience.

COURSE UPDATE   Short/Long loop – Short steep punchy climbs through the first third.  A little flatter gravel and ATV trail in the middle.  Rolling gravel and grassy double track to end.  A great mix for mountain bikers.
