The best rides...forever.

As mountain biking evolves, the "best in mountain biking" continues to get better. Epics® will always be about the ride.

The 2008 IMBA Epics blend purpose-built (Ray's Indoor Bike Park, FATS) facilities with trails that pre-date mountain bikes (Monarch Crest, Paul's 100). Both styles yield incredible Epics: specialized riding experiences offer challenge and thrills perfectly attuned for biking while older trails take us on amazing journeys that have long intrigued travelers of all sorts.

The sky's the limit to the experiences that the Epics program can embrace. Like the sport itself, the definition of an Epic will continue to evolve. One theme remains unchanged: the criteria for the Epic designation is quality: quality trails, a quality experience - something worth celebrating. Whether you are into flowing singletrack, hang time or a mega challenge, Epics feature something for everyone.
