Annual Galloping Goose 50 Mtb Challenge


  • Cuyuna Lakes Mountain Bike Trails Ironton, MN United States (map)

🪿50 miles. One trail.

You love to see it. The Galloping Goose 50 is back for 2026. Mass starts are hard to fit into busy schedules, so we built a challenge that works on yours.

From September 24 - October 24, it's just you and the Goose.

  • Ride 50 miles of Galloping Goose in a single calendar day.

  • Nothing more. Nothing less.

  • Bring friends or ride solo. Question your life choices somewhere around lap six.

  • NEW THIS YEAR: GG50 participants can choose to join the pledge and raise money for the Crew while they ride.
    The rider who raises the most wins a prize. Prize TBD, but it will be cool.

Dumb? Maybe. Fun? Absolutely.
