For 17 straight years the Padden MTN Pedal has been a cornerstone of the Pacific Northwest mountain bike racing calendar. It's the race that keeps on racing. Top notch park amenities create a scenic and convenient venue and the legendary course lures riders back year after year.

Padden is known to be one of the best spectator courses- riders doing multiple laps make for great viewing and raucous cheers. So it's a great place to come cheer on your friends, family and fellow racers. With the lake to swim in, playground structures for kids, large open grass fields its a great place to spend the day. Lake Padden Recreation Area is located barely 2.5 miles from the historic Fairhaven District & 3.5 miles to Downtown so it's an easy jaunt in for a visit to the local shops, eateries or ice cream shops! But don't forget the perrenial Banditos Burritos will be on site to makes sure racers can fuel up on site.

Age and ability classes guarantee there is a course length class so everyone can get it on the fun. Youth cycling is strongly supported and the FREE Shimano Kids Race (12 and under) and BIG course is always a huge hit.
