Bentonville Bike Fest

The UCI C1 and North American trials championship presented by CLIF

Trials riders are a rare breed of athletes. Absolute strenght, power, skill, insight, balance, explosiveness and patience are just a few of the skills that are required to master this discipline. Beside a very difficult sport to practice, it's undoubtebly the best spectator sport. Riders will challenge an obstacle course consisting of huge boulders, logs, concrete pipes and other difficult objects.
Goal is to overcome them without setting foot on the ground within a 2 minute time limit!
North Americas best trial riders will participate alongside the best international riders, reigning world champions and other super stars.
It's the first time in the history of US cycling that this event is on the international UCI calendar... a milestone for the sport and its international development!

Come cheer on these extraordinary athletes!

This event is happening on Saturday and Sunday June 18 & 19th at the festival area next to 8st market.

Saturday June 18: North American championship and qualifier for the Sunday UCI C1 contest (no UCI license needed)
Sunday June 19: UCI C1 finals (UCI license needed!)
