We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jason Bowers.

Jason competed at the 2026 Magic City CrossFit Semifinal and will always be part of this community. We’re grateful he shared the competition floor with us.

Our hearts are with his family, friends, and everyone who loved him.

In 2025, we took the Magic City Games to Legion Field for the Event 3: “Sandbag Eliminator.”

In 2027, Legion Field turns 100 years old.

Interesting timing… 👀

The part nobody sees.

Every Magic City Games season starts here. Sitting around a table, figuring out what worked, what didn’t, and what we want to do better.

A lot of work for a few really cool weekends.

There’s always a moment right before the pedals start turning.

This look that says, “Oh my gosh, I haven’t ridden a bike since I was a kid.”

Then the competition takes over, and something they haven’t done in years suddenly feels familiar again… Well, sometimes 😉

For the past three years, Cahaba Cycles has provided the bicycles and helmets that make these moments possible at the Magic City Games and CrossFit Semifinal.

Thank you, Cahaba Cycles, for helping our competitors try something unexpected and create long lasting memories.

And, as this collage proves, for helping make fitness in a helmet look surprisingly cool. 🚴‍♂️😎

5 years of growth. Stress. Change. Sweat. More than a few “oh sh*t” moments.

And somewhere along the way, this became a whole lot bigger than an event.

It became a community of people who keep showing up. Athletes, volunteers, spectators, partners, friends, and families who have given this thing life and made it matter.

Thanks for believing in us for the last 5. Can’t wait to see what we build together in the next 5.
