Congratulations to our 2026 XC Mountain Bike champions! In addition to winning titles and medals on Sunday, May 24, these champions zipped up our brand new OBRA Championship jerseys before stepping on the podium. Thank you to Castelli for providing these artfully-designed jerseys, which earned a lot of oohs and ahhs.
We’re also grateful to Mudslinger Events for hosting the 2026 XC MTB Championships at the iconic Sisters Stampede. Featuring amazing singletrack with breathtaking Cascade Mountain views, this race sells out every year, and we appreciate being a part of this year’s event in the heart of Downtown Sisters in such a meaningful way.
