A huge thanks to The BUS Bar and Grill and Adventures Unlimited for putting together hundreds of hoagies to feed our hungry racers. If you are headed back up to the Ocoee, check out all these guys have to offer. Lodging, camping, rafting, live music, good eats and drinks all in one place!

Thanks to The Ocoee River for going above and beyond with support for our 2026 event. Hands down this is the most beautiful venue we visit each year and we were so stoked to be back here.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for the 2026 Black Bear Rampage 20 and 35 Mile MTB Race! It was great to be back at the Ocoee Whitewater Center and we had a beautiful day of racing and perfect trail conditions. Thomas Turner and Jayden Randall reigned superior as the king and queen of Tanasi in the 35 mile race. A huge thanks to the wonderful support we received from The Ocoee River, The BUS Bar and Grill, Scott's Bicycle Centre, Adventures Unlimited, TORQ USA, Mulberry Gap - Adventure Basecamp, Tifosi Optics, Trek Bicycle, Muc-Off and Sasquatch Bike Fitting. Also thanks to all the rockstar volunteers who helped out to ensure the event ran smoothly. We can’t wait to make the event even bigger and better next year!
