Updated: 2020 Canadian national mountain bike calendar
Cross country, downhill and enduro national series racing spanning from coast to coast
The new year feels like it’s just begun, but already the 2020 national series race dates are looming on the horizon. In March, a packed and exciting Olympic year Canada Cup XCO calendar kicks off at Bear Mountain in Victoria, B.C.
Canada’s national downhill and enduro series are a bit further away, as they wait for snow to melt off the higher mountain slopes. Both series start in May.
With enduro sliding in under the UCI umbrella in 2019, 2020 will be the second year of Cycling Canada sanctioned national enduro championships. The event returns to Panorama Mountain Resort in B.C. once again.
Cross country national championships stay in Ontario for a second straight year, at Hardwood Ski and Bike. For the diesel engines, XC Marathon nationals are one province over in Saint-Felicien, Que..
Downhill national championships return to a familiar, and well-loved venue for 2020. After starting the series in Quebec at Crossroads Tremblant, the maple leaf sleeves will be awarded back in B.C. at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort in the Rocky Mountains.
