The Enduro is the WVMBA Series Championship Race, capping off a new WVMBA series – look for the top riders to compete in a tough race. The combination of the there races gives the participants a chance to truly be “King & Queen of the Hill” for the man or woman that can best all three events. This race series truly showcases what Slatyfork XC riding is all about – scenic single track, challenging rock gardens, 100 year old rail grades with the original ties still in place, spruce forest and spectacular views.

At 37 miles the Ultra is a bit over the initial 50k goal, but with the final 8 miles on the epic Props Run who could resist adding a few miles.
