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
