Bend, OregonSaturday-Sunday, July 31-Aug 1Bend has a well-deserved reputation as a multi-sport Mecca, a solid mountain bike community, and a trail system testament to years of IMBA visits and countless hours of local work. This is a fantastic location for beginner to advanced cross-country and all mountain riders, with some additional options for the more freeride inclined too. Trails feature fun climbs and descents, endless corners, and both natural and man-made features in between. If you're willing to pedal to access some great terrain, you'll have fun in Bend. We run morning skill sessions at one of the local parks, and focus our afternoon rides in the Phil's trails area. There we've been known to dial in our skills on Phil's, Ben's, Kent's, Whoops, Voodoo, Grand Slam, and KGB. The Bend Bellas have been a great help to us over the years, as has April Lawyer, former World Cup DH racer, Maxxis team rider, and current Bend resident. With any luck, we'll get to connect again in 2010.
