The largest women’s mountain bike enduro race in the U.S.
Sturdy Dirty Enduro
July 18, 2026 - TIGER MOUNTAIN
The mission behind the Sturdy Dirty Enduro is to create a fun, intimidation-free racing experience. It encourages women to engage more comfortably with enduro racing and contribute to local trail maintenance and community building. The event is inclusive, welcoming trans women, genderqueer women, and non-binary individuals who identify significantly as women. While only women may race, everyone is welcome to spectate and volunteer, fostering a strong sense of community and support for women in the sport.
We acknowledge that our race will be taking place on Indigenous Land of Coast Salish peoples who have reserved treaty rights to this land, specifically the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe. We thank these caretakers of this land who have lived and continue to live here since time immemorial.
