First thing first, the PXV XC TT is about making memories while having fun, raising money for great bike-centric programs, and literally bringing the bike community together!

We want to take this moment to say THANK YOU to our gracious hosts: the Yeager Family, for hosting what will surely be an EPIC event! Be sure to say “hello”, stop in their market, and plan your return visits throughout the year because they have a TON of fun events they throw each season. There's literally something for everyone.

This event would not have been made possible without the help and support of our friends from across the region: John Miller from MASS, Scotty Roberts and Maria Dziembowska, and THE Blake Tart the Grand Maestro of so many bike things! A very special thanks to all of our sponsors and
the MKOB board members, committee members and volunteers who have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to create this awesome event!

While this race is NOT a MASS race, we are leaning into the rules and guidelines that so many of us are familiar with when it comes to XC racing. Therefore: lets chat about some important stuff:

Racing Age – for all racers including Juniors – Racing Age is determined by your age on December 31st of the current year. To explain – for classes like Under 19, the racer CANNOT turn 19 in the current race year. Same for Under 15, the racer CANNOT turn 15 in the current year. Parents – please take note of this when registering your juniors for races.

Race is light rain or shine only. Refunds are ONLY available to those who purchase the optional refund insurance.
NO INSURANCE = NO REFUND if we have to postpone or cancel the event.

In the event of postponement, an announcement will appear on the More Kids on Bikes website and social media channels by 6:00pm, Saturday August 3rd. 2024.

Proceeds of this race event will go towards supporting programs to get more kids and adults on bikes and keeping them there! Monies raised will go towards supporting:The Phoenixville Bike Park Annual Improvements Campaign.Local and Emerging Trail InitiativesThe Camphill School Transition Program at Beaver Farm Bike CoalitionAND… Youth MTB Teams spanning the quad-state region!

The course contains grass single track, double track, a bit of gravel road, tight, twisty-turny tree-tangle single track through the shaded grove, log-overs, unique features, flattish sprints across farm fields, challenging climbs, speedy ventures through a “young” corn maze, up another hill, down a hill, up another hill, and down one more, and.. well, you get it.

Could/Did/Should we mention that each 4 miles boasts about… 465+ feet in elevation gain? ..YUP!
