The Mohican MTB 100 is one of the best endurance mountain bike races and events in the United States and is part of the National Ultra Endurance Series (NUE). At Strambecco, we consider the Mohican MTB 100 to be one of the Best Mountain Bike Events in the Midwest. Taking place in Northeastern Ohio, riders will crisscross three counties along a single loop, climb 10,000 feet, and go toe to toe with the top pros on this legendary ultra-endurance loop. The Mohican MTB 100 features a 100-mile and 100-kilometer option with seven fully stocked aid stations.
Event & Course Info
For the course itself and the different race options, there is a 100 miles or 100k loop consisting of 10,000 feet of climbing along mostly singletrack, doubletrack or dirt roads, spanning four counties careening through some of the most remote and scenic areas in the rolling hills of Mohican Country. Climbs of nearly a mile, elevation gains of 300+ feet, rock gardens, streams, and more! The 100-mile course is planned to include seven fully stocked and manned feed stations and a self-serve water stop. 100-mile competitors will choose to send drop bags (labeled 1 Gallon Ziplock bag or Hydrapak) to two aid stations of their choice. Aid station one and 3.5 is excluded for drop bags.
Area Accommodations & Things to Do
The race begins in downtown Loudonville, OH which is located within the broader Mohican area. This part of Ohio caters well to those who enjoy the great outdoors and is known as the camping and canoeing capital of the state. Lodging for the event includes a historic B&B, Blackfork Marken Inn, as well as Mohican Lodge and Conference Center in addition to unique camping options.
