Grand Beach Race

The traditional first race of the Manitoba mountain bike racing season.

It will either be in the single digits or in the twenties, we’ve had it all at this race, sunburns to racing in the snow. Whatever the temperatures the race is always boasts one of the largest fields of the year.

This is the first Cup race of the season, if you are ready to go it is a great way to get some valuable points early on.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

DATE: April 26th (alternate weather date - May 10th)
