Mayhem FUNduro at The Wilds
NEW Date June 29 due to rainout on June 8th!
Venue Description
The Mayhem FUNduro is the OG of Ohio’s enduro courses which was featured in Brice Shirbach’s 2015 Pinkbike article — the one that started it all. This race will kick off our official FUNduro race series and will be the 1 of 4 courses to get ready for.
Tackle 13 miles of scenic singletrack at Ohio's original enduro venue. With five timed stages (0.4–1.1 miles each), expect a mix of punchy climbs, fast descents, and manmade features including jumps, drops, and gaps, all with go-around options. This course is beginner-friendly but still delivers a thrill for seasoned riders. It can take you anywhere between 1.5 hours to 3 hours to complete the entire course.
