Individual and Team Relay Races
Hardwood Ski and Bike welcomes riders from all over Ontario back for the 18th annual Ontario High School Mountain Bike Championships.
We look forward providing a fun and challenging day for all ages and levels of riders. Each cyclist may compete as an Individual in the morning races, and again as a school Relay Team in the afternoon. All school and riders are encouraged to bring other riding friends and athletes to fulfill "Team" points for their school awards. Elementary School riders are also welcome to compete in a dedicated category.
Be sure to pre-register! Why? Only pre-registered riders are eligible for draw prizes, and for seeding into front start area!
Medals to the Top 10 in each high school race and Top 5 in each elementary school race.
School Teams and Awards:
School with 4 or more riders in an age category you qualify as a "Team". While any number of riders may enter for your school, the first 4 riders who finish will be counted for your school team standing.
Award Banners to first place teams in each of the seven High School categories.

Championships - Grade
Categories:
To simplify the registration process,
avoid confusion, and reduce pack size, categories
are based on Grade
Level of the racer.
Riders that
are aged for different grade level than typically
for year of birth,
are asked to enter appropriate category.
Courses will combine our wider ski trails with our more technical single track trails. Course maps will be available two weeks prior to the event. You may ride the courses before the event, during regular Hardwood hours, and regular trail fees apply. Start times, start formulas and distances are listed below.
