Racers can register for the following divisions:

Awards will be given to the top three finishers in each division each week.
Each week will feature a different section of trail. You can expect the trail segments to increase in difficulty each week, and that each timed section will take less than three minutes to complete.
Trail segment being used for that week's Speed Series will be marked, but not closed to the public. Riders who are not competing can roll through the event venue - be aware and check in with event staff prior to entering that section of trail.
Each week, racers will earn points based on their finish order within their division. Compete in all three races to qualify for the overall points championship!
In Week Three, we’ll award prizes to:
- The top three finishers in each category for the day, and
- The top three racers overall in each category based on cumulative points.
This event requires a valid season pass or lift ticket to participate. A lift ticket is not included with your event registration.
