23rd Annual Bell?s Beer Copper Harbor Trails Fest
The 23rd Annual Bell’s Beer Copper Harbor Trails Fest kicks off on Friday with a free movie night hosted by UPMTB premiering the film unReal 2 at the Copper Harbor Community Building at 8:30pm. On Saturday riders hit the trails for the Enduro event featuring either 2, 3, or 4 timed primarily downhill trail sections with untimed transition stages in between. At 4pm it’s the kids turn with 40 yard, 1 mile, and 3 mile mountain bike races for 13 and under. At 6pm, the fan favorite DWD Memorial Dock Jump showcases mountain bikers jumping via a ramp off the Harbor Haus Dock. The evening winds down in the Copper Harbor Park with Art Bike at the Harbor poster event and the music of Marquette based Frank and Da Beans.
On Sunday morning, a Downhill Race will take place on the Overflow Trail. Starting on Brockway Mountain, the downhill race features large jumps, drops, rugged terrain, and large berms as riders descend at high speed to the finish of the race near highway M26. At 1pm the XC races will roll out through Copper Harbor on their way to tackle sections of the newly constructed Keweenaw Point Trail before looping back through the main Copper Harbor Trail System and finishing in the Copper Harbor Park. In the evening, the fun continues with the party in the park featuring special beers from Bell’s Brewery and bluegrass music by Minneapolis based The Last Revel.
