Experience the exhilarating Blue Knob Mountain Bike Challenge on August 15, 2026. This year’s race will traverse both the trail systems of Blue Knob All Season Resort and Blue Knob State Park, offering two distinct courses: a 13.7-mile long course and a 25.4-mile short course. The long course begins at the picturesque Blue Knob All Season Resort clubhouse. Riders will tackle single-track trails within the resort before embarking on an arduous climb up to the majestic Blue Know lodge, where breathtaking views await. The journey continues through scenic state park paths until riders reach Pavia. Here, they'll face another challenging ascent back to the ski lodge, setting the stage for a thrilling downhill sprint back to the finish line at the resort. For those seeking an exhilarating yet shorter experience, the short course follows a similar initial route but takes racers around the scenic Pavia Lookout Loop before returning to the resort. Both courses promise rugged terrain and stunning landscapes that will test your skills and endurance. Registration is open now on BikeReg.com with ten categories available for participants of all ages. For those aged 18+, choose from Men’s Open, Women’s Open, or Single-Speed. Youth riders under 18 can also compete in their respective age groups. Early registration fees are $50 per category and $30 for youth races. Race-day begins at 8:00 AM with check-in followed by an additional fee of $10. The long course will kick off promptly at 10:00 AM, while the short course starts five minutes later to ensure a smooth race experience. Awards presentations are scheduled for 2:00 PM, celebrating top finishers in each category. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore Blue Knob’s hidden gems and enjoy post-race festivities with refreshments and camaraderie among fellow cyclists. Register today and be part of an event that aims to establish the Blue Knob Mountain area as a premier destination for mountain biking enthusiasts.
