Mud Sweat & Beers 2025

Get ready to conquer trails and toast triumphs at the 14th annual Mud, Sweat and Beers Mountain Bike Race on May 4, 2024! Launching from Mt. Holiday, with a backdrop of Grand Traverse Bay, choose your challenge: the robust 25-mile Stout, a refreshing 12-mile Pale Ale, a fizzy <2-mile Ginger Ale, or the bubbly kids' mini-loop. After pushing pedal to the metal through VASA's picturesque paths, kick back with local brews and cheer on the little racers sipping their Mud, Sweat and Root Beers. Gear up for a day packed with multiple race categories suitable for every age and skill—whether you're elite, sporty, or simply here for the heavy metal challenge (of bike weight, that is). Dive into this pedal party for a cause, where all proceeds fuel Mt. Holiday's unique non-profit mission and other local initiatives for kids. Let's ride, let's revel, let's make a difference!
