WORS Red Flint Firecracker

June 23, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

The first Firecracker was held in 2005 and we’ve been welcoming racers every year since.  CORBA (Chippewa Off Road Bike Association) remains hard at work to bring you some of the best racing in Wisconsin. We utilize this event as one of our primary fund raisers, which allows us to continue trail development on no less than TEN  trail systems in the region. Your participation is a big part of making these trails happen, so thank you!

The Firecracker weekend has plenty in store for you. On Friday you can set up camp, pre-ride and then grab some delicious wood-fired pizza onsite from the Foster’s Cheese Haus Fire Truck. Saturday brings you course pre-rides, our popular All-You-Can-Eat pasta feed (a fund-raiser for McDonnell High School cross country team) and s’mores by the bonfire.

Race day kicks off with an amazing All-You-Can-Eat breakfast buffet (fundraiser) that will be sure to fuel you up. Post-race, grab some snacks in the Racer Lounge or hit up our concession stand, available all day Sunday. We’ll also have coffee and snow cones for sale onsite Sunday. One thing we boast is “spectator-friendly” viewing areas. There are many sections of trail just a short walk from the Eau Claire County Expo and let’s not forget about the return of the Red Flint Brew View, our on-course beer tent!

Are you a runner? Our singletrack makes for an invigorating run. You can choose between a 5K or 10K distance. Better yet, do the run and then the mountain bike race!

Not racing? We are always in need of volunteers, who also receive a swag bag PLUS a t-shirt! Please be sure to watch the CORBA website and our Facebook page for course updates and race enhancements that are still in progress. This Firecracker is always a blast!!

All race proceeds go directly to CORBA, a 501c3 non-profit organization. CORBA builds and maintains the trails you are riding. A special thank you goes out to Lowes Creek County Park for their support of mountain biking and CORBA.
