On Wednesday October 16, 2024 Country Cycle (together with Eric Mentuck) hosted our first ever indigenous community bike race at the Squirrel Hills recreation area in Minnedosa Manitoba.
What: A mountain bike race for Indigenous communities.
- The race washeld for schools and other community groups.
- Participants under age 18 were placed into age categories.
- Participants either signed up to do the race solo or in a team of two.
- The winner of each category was determined by how many total laps were completed and how much time it took for each lap.
- For communities who didn't have bikes there were a limited amount of rentals available.
- There was a $25 registration fee per person to cover food and prizing.
Where: Squirrel Hills in Minnedosa Manitoba
When: October 16th from about 11:30am to 3pm.
Why: Mountain biking on good trails is one of the most amazing ways to spend time outside. Not only does it connect you with the land but it's a way for people to come together and celebrate the outdoors.
