Amazing single track, hilly, non-technical terrain. Hardwoods, pines, creeks, and fields.

From MTB Project:
"Brown's Creek has features that are extraordinary for the region. Just under 13 miles, Brown's Creek is a great flow trail with hills that will make you think you are in the foothills of the mountains when faced with challenging climbs, fast drops, and creek crossings."

From Singletracks:
"Basically Brown's Creek has everything you're looking for in a  trail... less than a mile away from beautiful downtown Elizabethtown and minutes away from White Lake."

THE CAUSE

HOW YOUR REGISTRATION MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Cape Fear SORBA is a chapter of the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA). It is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit whose mission is to create, enhance and preserve great trail experiences for mountain bikers in the Cape Fear Region of North Carolina. This organization is the driving force behind the creation and maintenance of Brown's Creek, Brunswick Nature Park and Blue Clay Bike Park. 

Why the Space Theme?

The Brown in Brown's Creek isn't just on the park and the adjacent airport, it's also painted on a mural in downtown Elizabethtown, paying homage to Bladen County's living legend, NASA Astronaut Curtis Brown Jr. '"Curt".  A decorated United States Air Force colonel, Brown spent 57 days in space on six successful space shuttle missions which he piloted or commanded. We pay homage to his pursuit to press the boundaries of the universe, by encouraging you to push your boundaries in a setting that's out of this world.

The race is produced in partnership with Go Time Events and Without Limits. The same duo that brings you our region's most popular trail running events like the Carolina Beach Trail Half Marathon, Southern Tour Ultra, Shakori 40 and the Copperhead Beer Relay.
