Event description
Be the first one on the XQuarry MTB trail and prove your skills.

STXC is MTB Short Trail Cross Country Race. STXC is the most exciting race format for spectators since competitors will pass the crowed several times on our short trail of about 1mile / 1.6km short track mountain bike racing combines elements of a road criterium, cyclo-cross without the dismounts, and quick paced BMX.

The excitement is additionally primed by the understanding that the pack leading the race is truly the front-runners, making Short Track easy to understand, simple to follow, and continuously entertaining.

The race will be a dual heat format so every participant will have two goes. The fastest riders will then progress to the finals.

Junior – 2 laps qualifier rounds | 5 laps final round (8km)
12 - 17 Years, male/female (max 15 starters at the same time)

Open – 5 laps qualifier rounds | 15 laps final round
18 - 39 Years, male/female (max 25 starters at the same time)

Master – 5 laps qualifier rounds | 15 laps final round
40 Years +, Male/female (max 25 starters at the same time)

This is the first race of the XQ STXC series with 3 more races until summer.
