Join us this Memorial Day weekend for three days of non-stop mountain bike riding. Starting on Friday May 24th, take a guided ride through the underground caverns of Adventure Mine, checking out the bats and old copper mine workings along the way. The surface trails there are among the most rugged in the Copper Country!

Held at the Michigan Tech Trails [https://www.michigantechrecreation.com/trails/forest/index], this enduro will feature 2-3 relatively short stages with minimal pedaling between them. Designed with families in mind, the race will be competitive but not _too_ competitive. Families and friends can ride together as one group for bonus fun. If you have young riders with you we'll give you extra time to make it down the course so you don't have to worry about faster riders catching you.
