Whiteface Mountain Biking Pause

Whiteface Mountain’s international mountain biking events are pausing after three years as ORDA takes time to reassess — no single reason, but economic impact, environmental compliance, and course adjustments are key factors. The events brought in $11M last year, though ORDA saw a net loss, highlighting the cost of hosting global competitions. A DEC violation over unauthorized tree cutting didn’t drive the pause, but changes are underway: new courses will stick to existing trails, and restoration efforts are ongoing. The next UCI race is still set for October, with revised plans now under public review. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
