Shelden Mountain Bike Fest

Whether you are new to mountain biking or an expert on the trails, join us on Saturday, September 30 for our annual Shelden Mountain Bike Fest at Stony Creek Metropark. Experience the thrill of the newly redeveloped Shelden Trails with fellow mountain bike enthusiasts, visit vendor and bike-related booths and enjoy food vendors and s’mores around a bonfire.

Beginner mountain bike instruction, demos and group rides will ease new or young bikers into the sport and introduce you to the trails. The GROM and Beach trail loops on the Shelden Trails are handcycle accessible and handcycle demonstrations and clinics will be available.

Rounding out the evening will be a twilight trail ride, so be sure to bring your bike lights! After the ride, relax around the bonfire with food and drinks.
