    MNMBS #7 - Border Crossing

    White Tail Ridge
    Corporate Park, River Falls, Wisconsin


    Sunday, August 12, 2012- Cross Country Mountain Bike Race

    Racers can expect to ride flowing, fast hardpack singletrack; roots and rocks; short, steep downhill and uphill sections; uphill switchbacks; grassy, wide open field sections; technical climbs; and a generous amount of flowing doubletrack. This course will challenge every level of racer, and can be described as being similar to the Lowes Creek trails, in Eau Claire, with even more singletrack.
