Racing at Big Bear Lake
The annual Big Bear Lake Mountain Bike Classic will be held on July 22. This race is the WVMBA point's series event #7. We have an adrenaline charged mass start at high noon. The course starts on a one-mile stretch of pavement, which spreads the field before jumping into tight winding single track. Nearly all of the 19 to 20 miles of racing is in single/double track. This extremely fast and technical course is full of large embedded rocks, which provide wide grin racing for all skill levels. All sport and experts racers will do a 30+ K loop. Beginner racers will do a shortened 7-mile course. Two water stations are provided along the course.

The kid's race will be held at 10:30 Sunday morning just before the adult race. Young racers will be treated to a true "in the woods" kids course. All kid racers will receive medals and a hand dipped ice cream cone from the Big Bear County Store. Having the kid's race on Sunday provides a unique opportunity for the entire family to participate in a mountain bike event. Classes are by age 6 through 12, both girls and boys.

    Registration Begins at 9:00 am
