Axbow's Summer Series Bike Race

Join us for a monthly evening ride on the Mickelson Trail—an inclusive, safe, and fun cycling experience for riders of all skill levels. Everyone is welcome; e-bikes may participate but are not eligible for 100-mile race prizes.

Start time: 5:30 PM for all distance groups. We offer two ride options: a 12-mile fun ride and a 25-mile race bracket. The 12-mile group is a social, non-competitive option and will not have a podium. All 12-mile participants will be entered into end-of-series prize drawings so everyone has an equal chance to win.

100-mile race brackets:

• Youth:     12–17
• Adult:     18–55
• Senior:    55 and up
• Men and Women podiums will be awarded in each bracket.

A tandem bike is welcome to ride but will not qualify for podium placement.

Entry fee: A portion of your fee covers trail access. $20 of each entry goes toward an annual Mickelson Trail Pass. If you already have a pass, that $20 will be applied to the prize pool.

• Helmets are required for all riders.
• All riders must sign a race waiver.
• Stay on the Mickelson Trail at all times.
• Respect fellow riders and trail users.
• Ride any bike you prefer (for example, a road bike with gravel tires is acceptable).
• E-bikes  may ride but are ineligible for 100-mile race prizes.

We will post finish times and an updated leaderboard after each event.

If a thunderstorm is forecast or occurs, the ride will be postponed. Rescheduled rides will take place the following Wednesday.

We are actively seeking sponsors and volunteers to help run the series. If you or your organization would like to support the event, please reach out.
