Mooseduro

Moose Mountain Enduro Race

2019 Event Made Possible By:

2019 is now Sold Out and our Racer Waitlist is full.  Thank you all for your support and interest!

MooseDuro is a multi-stage Enduro race held by Alberta 66 MTB and Moose Mountain Bike Trail Society (MMBTS).  This grassroots event is brought to life by a passionate crew of volunteers and sponsors from the local community and has sold out the last two years since its inception in 2017.  All profits from the race go back to MMBTS for maintaining and building trails on the mountain. This year MMBTS is building a new jump trail so the profits will directly benefit the new flow line.  Last year MooseDuro raised over $5,000 dollars from the race and new memberships purchased at registration.
