Organiser's Description

Come ride with us in the First Annual Tehachapi Summit Challenge: Weekend on the Rocks. Make a day trip of it or come on out and camp (onsite).

The Tehachapi Summit Challenge: Weekend on the Rocks is coming in hot, serving up a fullgas mashup of XC grit and enduro chaos. The XC course has plenty of climbing, looseoverhard tech, scattered rock gardens, sweeping turns, and a touch of sand to keep you honest. The enduro drops from the summit through three rowdy stages packed with blackdiamond features, steep chutes, tight corners and chunky surprises. Rain or shine, the mountains are calling and if youre bold enough, the AllMountain category lets you take on both races on the same bike. This is where strength meets skill, and Tehachapi shows its Weekend on the Rocks!
