Milford Bike Fest and Trail Challenge


Come join us for a day of riding bikes around Milford’s well-connected trail system followed by live music on the deck at Main Street Grill and Tavern!  

Did you know that 5 single track mountain bike trails are fully accessible from Downtown Milford?  Join the Motor City Mountain Biking Association for the Milford Bike Fest and Trail Challenge as we showcase some of our favorite mountain bike trails, raise money for trail maintenance, and then celebrate on the deck of Main Street Grill and Tavern in Downtown Milford!

 

Tailor your ride from family-friendly, paved-path rides to an all-day epic adventure combining all 5 trails and totaling up to 100 miles.

Start in Downtown Milford and join the MCMBA for a Guided Group Ride or the Huron Valley Bike Club for youth group rides, or Create Your Own Adventure with fellow riders across the vast trail system.  After riding, join us at Main Street Grill and Tavern in Downtown Milford for live musical entertainment to celebrate a day well spent exploring and enjoying the trail system.

    Love them or hate them, Michigan winters are part of the experience of living in this great state.
