E-BIKES

The Power to ride more trails! Class 1 E-bikes are legal at McDowell Mountain Regional Park so naturally they are a part of the Cactus Cup. We encourage all e-bikers to join us for 1 or more events! E-bike categories are an option in the XC – 25 mile, 10 mile and Sunday’s 20 mile. Sign up for 1 race or in the Mini Cup for back to back days.

Class 1 eMTB is a specific classification for sustainable use on trails, paths or riding areas. Class 1 eMTB models only.  Pedal assist only.  Must be pedaled to activate the motor and cease to provide power above 20mph.  In summary it’s a pedal assist e-bike.
