Mudslinger XC Mountain Bike Race 2027.

The 40th Mudslinger XC is one of America's oldest mountain bike races, held since 1987 in Blodgett, Oregon, about 20 minutes west of Corvallis, on the Tum Tum unit of Starker Forests. It runs on Saturday, April 3, 2027. Riders meet at Blodgett School at 11:15 a.m. and roll out at 11:30 a.m. Pacific for a 1.8-mile neutral roll to the start line, then a mass start with the long course first, followed by the short course. The course mixes old-school logging roads with about 40% Pacific Northwest singletrack. The race is part of the Oregon XC Series, with 21 long course and 14 short course categories, and runners from the morning Mudslinger Trail Run can race both for the Ultimate Mudslinger challenge.

Registration stays on BikeReg. The course maps are the organizer's 2027 long and short course routes from Ride with GPS.
