The UCI C1 and North American Trials championship presented by Haleon

Trials riders are a rare breed of athletes. Absolute strenght, power, skill, insight, balance, explosiveness and patience are just a few of the skills that are required to master this discipline. Beside a very difficult sport to practice, it's undoubtebly the best spectator sport. Riders will challenge an obstacle course consisting of huge boulders, logs, concrete pipes and other difficult objects.
Goal is to overcome them without setting foot on the ground within a 2 minute time limit!
North Americas best trial riders will participate alongside the best international riders, reigning world champions and other super stars.
It's the 4th time in the history of US cycling that this event is on the international UCI calendar... a milestone for the sport and its international development!
This event will be LIVE streamed on the UCI channels and our own Youtube page on Sunday May 25th.

Come cheer on these extraordinary athletes!

This event is happening on Saturday and Sunday May 24th & 25th at the festival area.

Saturday May 24th: North American championship (day license) and qualifier for the Sunday UCI C1 contest (UCI license needed, day licenses available)
Sunday May 25th: UCI C1 finals (UCI license needed!)
