Downhill MTB Race ♦ Marin County, CA
Solstice on Solstice is Marin County’s first ever professionally timed and produced downhill mountain bike race.
Advanced riders only! Expect black diamond conditions — roots, rocks, tree hazards, drops, and generally challenging trail conditions over a 1.3 mile race course. Full face helmet required. No refunds for no shows, DNF, or mis-judgement of your own ability.
Special thanks go out to San Domenico School and their hospitality in allowing the use of the trails!
Race information
Details about race format, timing, rules, and general expectations are all available at the registration site.
After the race

After Party: Pedal on over to our Title Sponsor, Solstice Bike Works — 600 Manuel T Freitas Pkwy San Rafael — and show your raceplate for a free beer.
Entry fee
Your entry fee includes a professional timed race, an commemorative t-shirt, a taco lunch, and a podium ceremony.
