Saturday, Sept 5^th

Coaltown Throwdown Female-Identifying Riders Only Enduro is back for a fifth year of awesome Cumberland singletrack, on-course fun, delicious food, rad music and incredible vibes. This race is open to female-identifying riders of all levels.

This year our course will include 3 stages of blue square trails, with a shorter youth course, and a 4th stage for the Givers and a 5th stage for the Senders. We’ve also created the Party Pace category that is for folks not bothered about timed racing and in it for the fun, this is where you can ride class 1 e-bikes and ride any stages with your sisters. We’ll kick things off at the Coaltown headquarters at the Gravity MTB Garage, spend the day riding the Cumberland trail network, and wrap it all up with a party back at the Garage.

United Riders of Cumberland (UROC) would like to give a huge thank you to this event’s title sponsors Gravity MTB, Forbidden Bikes, Experience Comox Valley and Dharco. We’ll also have Jenn Dykstra Photography behind the camera.

We would also like to thank our supporting sponsors Quality Foods, Cobs Bread, Cumberland Brewing, Crave Coast, Tofino Kombucha, Seeds Food Market, Eatmore Sprouts, Full On lighting & Royston Flowers.

Please note you must be a UROC member in order to register for this event. Membership can be purchased here.
