MoCo Epic 2026

About this race

MoCo Epic 2026 The MoCo Epic is a festival celebrating mountain biking, trails, and the community that makes this region a great place to ride! 2026 marks the 16th anniversary of the MoCo Epic. We can’t wait to celebrate this milestone with you! Giving Back to Trails The MoCo Epic is MORE’s biggest community event and fundraiser. The event is made possible by the hard work and generosity of sponsors, partners, and over a hundred individual volunteers. For the past five years, half of the event’s net proceeds have been placed in a fund dedicated to improving MoCo Epic trails. Projects include: Creation: A true novice loop at Schaeffer through the complete rebuild of ¾ mile of the Orange Trail. Refurbishment: Professional and volunteer refurbishment of the Schaeffer White Loop to make it both accessible and challenging for adaptive riders. Tools: Purchase of brush mowers, string mowers, and multiple gas and battery powered hedge trimmers to keep all the MoCo trails open in the summer. Opening: 10 miles of the Seneca Greenway previously hiking only, including replacing rotting bridges and upgrading multiple sections of trail.
