A Festival Built Around Cycling Culture
Bike Fest at Trail Hub brings together mountain bikers, gravel riders, brands, and the cycling community for a one-day festival built around the spirit of the ride.
Set at Trail Hub with direct access to Durham Forest and the surrounding gravel road network, the event blends competitive racing with exploration and a welcoming festival atmosphere.
Whether you’re racing the MTB Enduro, riding the Gravel Fondo, or coming to experience the festival, Bike Fest is about reconnecting riders with what makes cycling special.
Event Selection
Riders can choose from three distinct experiences, each offering a different way to engage with the terrain and the day.
MTB Enduro
The MTB Enduro will host the opening round of the Ontario Enduro Series, bringing competitive racing to Trail Hub and the Durham Forest trail network. Riders can choose between Short Course, Long Course, and Kids Course options, each designed to match different levels of experience while maintaining the core Enduro format of timed downhill stages and untimed transitions across a mix of technical and flow trails.
The E-MTB Enduro Long Course introduces an additional category for electric mountain bikes, capped at 50 riders to maintain a premium race experience. This category is open to Male and Female riders aged 19+, using Class 1 E-MTBs only, and follows the same course structure as the traditional Long Course.
For younger riders under 19, the Kids Course offers a welcoming, low-pressure way to be part of the event.
Gravel Fondo
The Gravel Fondo explores the rolling gravel roads and rural landscapes surrounding Trail Hub, offering a different rhythm to the day. With a 50km Short Course and a 100–110km Long Course, riders can settle into the terrain, take in the scenery, and experience some of the best gravel riding in the region.
Optional categories are available for Junior riders (19 & under, Male and Female), alongside a non-competitive Gravel Social Ride for those who prefer a more relaxed experience. This category removes timing and podiums entirely, allowing riders to focus purely on the ride.
Experience Highlights
Courses are fully marked and supported, with professional timing included for Enduro participants. Throughout the day, riders have access to the Festival & Expo Village, where brand activations, product showcases, and demos create an engaging backdrop to the event.
Food and beverage will be available from Nest at Trail Hub, while the post-ride atmosphere naturally shifts into a social, relaxed environment as riders return from the course and reconnect.
Festival & Expo Village
At the center of Bike Fest is the Festival & Expo Village, where the energy of the day comes together.
Cycling brands, product showcases, and demo opportunities create space for discovery, while food, drink, and music set the tone for a lively but approachable atmosphere. It’s a place to regroup after your ride, connect with other riders, and spend time within the cycling community.
Even if you’re not racing, the village offers a reason to come out and be part of the day.
Event Overview
The MTB Enduro is built around multiple timed downhill stages, linked by untimed transitions, creating a race format that rewards both skill and strategy. Riders can expect three to four hours of riding across a mix of technical and flow trails within Durham Forest, finishing back at Trail Hub in the heart of the festival.
The Gravel Fondo offers a different pace, guiding riders along scenic gravel routes through Durham Region. With rolling terrain, quiet backroads, and multiple route distances, the experience is designed to be both challenging and immersive, beginning and ending at Trail Hub.
Who Should Attend
Bike Fest is designed for anyone who feels connected to cycling, whether that connection is competitive, social, or simply recreational.
Mountain bikers, gravel riders, cycling clubs, and training groups will all find a place here, alongside independent bike shops, cycling brands, and those drawn to outdoor and endurance sport culture. Trail Hub members, first-time visitors, and curious spectators are equally welcome.
You might come to race, ride, spectate, or simply spend the day in a setting that brings the cycling community together.

The Tour de Thorncliffe is back for 2026 with ambitious targets and exciting prizes.
A collaboration between the Thorncliffe Park Autism Support Network (TPASN) and the Women’s Cycling Network, with support from organizational partners The Neighbourhood Office, Gateway Bike Hub and Cycle Toronto, this annual event raises money to provide free summer camps for children with special needs.
Inclusive Summer Camps That Make a Difference
Our camps have been a tremendous success, bringing together children with and without neuro-developmental disorders in an environment that fosters awareness, understanding, and acceptance. “While there were free camps in the city, none were open to children with special needs,” says TPASN’s Dr. Shakhlo Sharipova—which is why our inclusive model is so vital.
Each year, demand for these camps grows, and the need for support from families in our community continues to rise. We’re calling on the community and local businesses to help us raise $20,000 to fund camps in Thorncliffe Park and Flemingdon Park. Every contribution, big or small, helps create life-changing experiences for children.
With your support, we can:
✔ Provide a free, enriching camp experience for 70 children, helping them build social skills, enjoy the benefits of outdoor play, and develop healthy habits.
✔ Hire qualified educators and one-on-one assistants to support children with high sensory and behavioural needs.
✔ Cover materials, nutritious meals (breakfast, lunch & snacks), and specialized entertainers who create an engaging, inclusive environment for kids with autism and other neuro-developmental differences.
Together, we can ensure every child has the chance to learn, grow, and thrive—regardless of ability.
