2026 Midwest Mountain Bike Fest

Announcing the second annual Midwest Mountain Bike Fest, a non-competitive, community-based festival in the riding destination of Cuyuna, MN. Join us in celebrating the culture and camaraderie of mountain biking, demoing the latest bikes, meeting new people, building skills, raising money for the trails, and enjoying all the beauty the area offers. Over 60 miles of legendary red dirt single track, magnificent views, and crystal clear lakes await riders. Nightly events, music, and parties. Fun and trails for all ability levels, from beginner to expert.

Registrants will receive: festival pass, Scavenger Hunt punch card, demo access, guided ride access, skills clinic access, sticker, and complimentary beverages (n/a and alcoholic) at the Friday night Klunker ride and Sunset party. (Ride a Klunker or Vintage MTB if you’ve got one)

Weekend passes are $50 for adults, $35 for 12 and under, with 10% of all proceeds going directly to the Cuyuna Lakes MTB Trail Crew.

Sponsored by: SRAM, New Belgium Brewery, Wolf Tooth, Red Raven, Angry Catfish, Wilde Bicycle Co., 1Up USA, Otso & Donkey Label.

The Expo and Demo takes place at the heart of the festival, the Historic Croft Mine Park, located right next to the Yawkey trail system. The demo / expo is a chance to interact with the people behind your favorite brands, test ride bikes, and gain product knowledge. Mountain bikes and gear have become huge investments and the aim of the expo is to help riders make informed purchasing decisions. In addition to the bicycle brands there will be food vendors, a makers market, etc.
