Milford Challenge – June 1st!


 

 

The Milford Trail Challenge is an annual celebration of mountain biking in and around the Village of Milford.  Bikers pick their own course and trails: Milford and/or Highland and/or Proud Lake and/or Hickory Glen and/or Island Lake and/or Kensington… all easily reachable from Milford with a minimum of road riding. You can tailor this anywhere from a fun trail ride with friends to an all-day 100 miler epic! Enjoy $2.00 beers and musical entertainment at the Milford House between trails, camping 3 miles away at Proud Lake, and bask in the satisfaction knowing that you’re supporting your local trails!

Entry Fee: $15 (Proceeds benefit the the Motor City Mountain Biking Association)

Registration: 8 am – noon

After 11, registration will continue until 4 pm at

A detailed map and suggested routes will be provided at registration, along with a wrist band for discounted beverages at the Milford House. Entertainment begins in the early afternoon. Please stop by, share your stories and adventures with other riders. Have fun, and enjoy downtown Milford.

This is a self supported and self directed ride. Bring water, food, money, cell phones – whatever you need for a day on the trails.
