The Gravity Mountain Bike National Championships will head to Ride Rock Creek in 2023 and 2024.

USA Cycling is excited to announce that the 2023 Gravity Mountain Bike National Championship will take place July 12-16 at Ride Rock Creek in Zirconia, N.C. At this event, the stars-and-stripes will be up for grabs in Downhill, Dual Slalom, and Enduro racing for professional and age-group categories. The event will remain at Ride Rock Creek for 2024.

USA Cycling is proud to bring the National Championship to the new premier downhill mountain biking venue Ride Rock Creek Mountain Bike Park in the southeast. Founded by National Team athlete and professional downhill mountain bike racer, Neko Mulally, the park was built in 2022 on a 300-acre plot on the edge of the infamous DuPont State Forest.

“We’re excited to bring another mountain bike national championship back to the east coast. We are eager to see the development and growing community at Ride Rock Creek and know this will be a great new addition to our National Championship venues with newly built dual slalom course and enduro stages,” said Tara McCarthy, Director of National Events at USA Cycling.
