The Saratoga Mountainbike Association Presents the 6th Annual Mix Up the Dirt Mountain Bike Festival

June 12 @ the Clearing, SMBA trails


SMBA will be hosting the 6th annual MUD event from 10a-5p. This event will take place in the clearing. There will be mountain bike demos, BBQ lunch, refreshments, scheduled group rides for all skill levels, a skinny challenge and other mountain bike related activities, giveaways, etc.

The event is FREE and open to members and non-members alike. Attendees must have a helmet, water (hydration pack or water bottle) and mountain bike to take part in any of our group rides.

Demo bikes will be available from Trek, Gary Fisher, IBIS, and Cannondale. If you wish to demo a bike, be sure to have a valid ID and credit card on hand as some may require a deposit to demo a bike. Anyone 18 years and under wishing to demo a bike will need a parent or guardian present.

Also check out the latest cycling computers, Heart rate monitors and lighting systems from Sigma Sport. A few local bike shops will also be there. Talk to representatives from Elevate Cycles, High Adventure Ski & Bike and Blue Sky Bicycles. They’ll also have lots of bike related stuff for sale as well.

The LUNA Chix of Upstate NY will also be there. Join them as they will lead a women's only/all-abilities MTB ride at 10:30am and a co-ed intermediate MTB Ride at 1:30pm. They will have water bottles for $5 each and raffle tickets for sale for several items with all proceeds going to the Breast Cancer Fund.

Volunteers needed
We could always use an extra hand with running the event. Right now we could use people to help lead and sweep on group rides. If you know the trails or just want to ride sweep, we'd be very grateful. We could probably use a hand setting up and tearing down too. Any help is appreciated.

SMBA T-shirts, Jerseys and Socks available
We have shirts available for $10 each in red, grey, and black, in sizes M through XL.
Also available will be SMBA cycling jerseys for $60, in sizes ranging from S to XL.

The socks are black with a mid-cut ankle, with SMBA logos on each side of the ankle. There are limited numbers of S and XL left, as well as a regular supply of M and L sizes. (See below for size conversion.) The socks are $5 per pair.

Directions and Parking
We encourage all attendees to park in town and bike to the trails. Parking at the intersection of Clinton and Daniels is limited and inadequate. Parking in the clearing or on the access road will not be allowed under any circumstances. Here is a map showing available parking in town, on Skidmore campus as well as directions to the clearing.
