Downieville Classic XC Race and All Mountain Championships
Sign up for the 26.5 point-to-point XC race that starts with an 8-mile, 4,000-foot climb up to the Sierra Crest, before descending back into Downieville. The All Mountain category adds on the legendary 15-mile Downieville Downhill individual time trial on Sunday. Race, volunteer or just join the festival—good times in the mountains, guaranteed! Now in its 26th year, the Downieville Classic is one of the most epic mountain bike races on the calendar, and a bucket-list event not to be missed! The Classic is a fundraiser for its organizer, the Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship. All proceeds benefit SBTS' trail maintenance and building work in Downieville and throughout the Lost Sierra region.
