This spring, the OZ Trails Town Series presented by Bike School Bentonville returns for its fourth season! This five-week short track mountain bike race series is family-friendly and provides racing opportunities for people of all skill levels.
This year’s series begins on Thursday, March 30 and takes place at the Ironhead property in Bentonville. Riders of all race experience are welcome and encouraged to participate – young kids with a strider or pedal bike, junior riders, NICA Student Athletes, Women’s A/B/C, and Men’s A/B/C.
