WHAT IS THE MS MOUNTAIN CHALLENGE?

 

It’s an invitation to surpass yourself, to indulge your passion for mountain biking and to ride all day surrounded by other enthusiasts like yourself, but it’s also a way to do good by participating in a fundraiser to support people with multiple sclerosis. This friendly sporting challenge is open to riders of all levels. Even if the MS Mountain Challenge is mostly focused on the pleasure of riding on the Mont SUTTON / Plein air Sutton MTB network trails, the level of difficulty is satisfying for everyone, even for mountain bike fanatics. Whether you are an amateur or a competitor, there is a place for you! And if you want to be recognized among all the participants, we strongly encourage you to dress up! Come with your mountain biking friends to have a maximum fun and celebrate the 6th anniversary of the MS Mountain challenge on Saturday, August 29 at Mont SUTTON!
