A Week in the Bluffs

The Life Time Big Sugar Classic features a world-class mountain bike race and world-class gravel race in the cycling capital of the U.S., Northwest Arkansas. It’s a week-long celebration that allows off-road enthusiasts to shred both the MTB trails and gravel roads that put this corner on the map. Wind down the season with a sugar crash and join us for the Life Time Little Sugar MTB on October 12 and the Life Time Big Sugar Gravel on October 18.

Featured Events

Two weekend races with a full week of cycling events in beautiful Northwest Arkansas.

Starting in Coler MTB Preserve, the MTB courses travel north into Bella Vista where you’re met with bluff lines, caves, waterfalls, and the iconic ledges.
