Axbow's Summer Series Bike Race

Welcome

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.

How It Works

Start time: 5:30 PM for all distance groups.

We offer two ride options: 

12-mile fun ride and 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.

Race Brackets and Categories

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.


 Cash prizes are awarded to the top finishers in each race bracket

  • $100 for 1st place
  • $50 for 2nd place
  • $25 for 3rd place


All sponsors will have their name or logo featured on the race placard. Increased sponsorship directly contributes to additional raffle prizes. 

Race Rules

  • 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.

Schedule Changes and Weather

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