Following a hugely successful race at Deer Valley Resort in 2017, the SCOTT Enduro Cup will return as a two-day race for the final round of the season. Deer Valley Resort offers a challenging selection of lift-served downhill mountain biking on unkempt and technical descents and speed driven trails. Round 5 is the ultimate test of skill and the season finale you won’t want to miss.

Deer Valley Resort continues to work closely with world-renowned bike park development company, Gravity Logic, to pump out challenging new trails. The SCOTT Enduro Cup presented by Vittoria at Deer Valley is August 25-26, 2018.
