The Mystic MTB Race presented by Owenhouse Bicycling Co. is proud to announce that it is back for the third year in a row and will be hosting the event on Saturday July 16, 2016.

Featuring 40 miles of challenging climbs, world-class descents and remote scenery, the Mystic MTB Race offers mountain bikers an opportunity to challenge themselves on some of the most enjoyable connector trails in the Gallatin National Forest. Originating at the Bear Canyon Trailhead just east of Bozeman, the race takes riders over ridgelines, past alpine lakes and down flowing drainages while exploring the abundant trails throughout the Gallatin National Forest. 

Building off of the success of the first two years, the Mystic MTB Race plans to expand the field of riders but will still limit the number of available spots. Interested riders can register for the race online at mysticrace.com until July 14 and in person July 15 at Owenhouse Bicycling Co.—early registration is encouraged.

The Mystic MTB Race plans to donate a portion of the proceeds to mountain bike advocacy groups in the Bozeman area. Event information, race updates and online registration are available at mysticrace.com.
