Outdoor Festival and Gravel Grinder Enduro

 

About Mountains to Meadows Endurofest

10 years later, Grinduro returns to Quincy, back where it all started, to celebrate our birthday with the perfect party to race ratio at the ultimate California gravel race, only to be bolstered with the high speed, magically flowy Mt. Hough Enduro MTB/eDuro.

What it is: A weekend of racing and partying in the Lost Sierra where riders may choose to race Grinduro Saturday, the Mt. Hough Enduro MTB/e-MTB Enduro Sunday, or both for serious bragging rights. In short, Grinduro is just what the name suggests: Gravel Road Race + Mountain Bike-Style Enduro = one long loop of pavement and dirt, where finishing times aren’t based on overall loop time, but four timed segments.

The Dirt: Mt. Hough has developed as a singletrack destination over the last ten years, now boasting more than 70 miles of mostly flowy singletrack. Forest service roads criss cross the mountainside like a grid to nowhere, and everywhere, making the mountain an ideal playground for gravel enthusiasts. Mountains to Meadows Endurofest makes the best of these two dirt worlds, coexisting in one magical weekend of racing. Not a racer? Not to worry. Come for the vibes, the music, and to volunteer!

Details: 1.5 hours from Lake Tahoe & Reno. 3 hours from Sacramento.

Come spend a beautiful fall weekend with us in the Lost Sierra and support the work of Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship—all ticket proceeds benefit SBTS’ work to revitalize mountain communities, using trails as the tool.
