Shelden's BIG Bang XC MTB Race

Get ready to hit the tracks at Stony Creek Metro Park for the thrilling return of the traditional XC MTB race! Set your sights on the top step or challenge your personal best on a diverse 8.5-mile course that blends exhilarating machine-built single track, a classic climb, and dynamic two-track within Shelby Township's beloved Shelden Trails.

Experience the rush from the start line through a half-mile hole shot, followed by a mix of skilled single and two-track sections. Six distinct parts per lap offer the perfect opportunity to showcase your bike handling skills, all while enjoying the fast, open spaces designed for safe overtaking. With steady climbs and smooth descents, this race promises plenty of fun and excitement for racers of all levels.

And the best part? All the hard-earned exhilaration supports a noble cause, as post-race proceeds go towards The House of Promise in Lansing, MI, dedicated to aiding victims of human trafficking. So, gear up for an unforgettable race day where every pedal powers a greater good!
