Coaltown Throwdown Women’s Enduro is back for a third year of smooth Cumberland singletrack, on-course fun, delicious food, live music and incredible vibes. This race is open to female-identifying riders of all levels.
Saturday June 1st 2024
This year our regular course will include four stages of blue flow trails, with a shorter youth course, and an extra fifth-sixth black diamond stage for those seeking the full send. We’ll start the day at Coaltown headquarters in Village Park , hit the Cumberland trail network, and end with a party in the park.
United Riders of Cumberland (UROC) would like to give a huge thank you to this event’s title sponsors Shimano, Vancouver Island Brewing, Gravity MTB, Schwalbe and Sara Kempner Photography. We would also like to thank our supporting sponsors Hornby Organic Energy Bars, Quality Foods and Tofino Kombucha.
