Downhill racing in the Rocky Mountains.
Built by the people it shaped.
đ CO ¡ UT ¡ WY ¡ NM
Round 1: Angel Fire, NM â June 11-14
â Register now
We get asked a lot â whoâs behind MSC? So here we go.
A former pro racer who grew up racing the original series. A business mind who rediscovered bikes after a heart attack. A Dutch sailor who traded wind for dirt. And a 45lbs emotional support unit who thinks she runs the show.
First race is 56 days out. See you in Angel Fire!
Downhill lives here.
Our founders T-shirt landed. Theyâre up on our website, link is in our bio.

Truly what a wild thing to say and I am not sure where to start. I was a misfit on the wrong path growing up, heading towards all the wrong things in life. The MSC and all the people behind it provided me (among so many others) a platform to find purpose and eventually sending me on a path to build a life I am proud of. Something I am forever grateful for.
A few of our sponsors are people that had the same exact story of the MSC changing their life. If you have a similar story or memory - please drop it in the comments as I would love to hear it.
I canât wait to see our community come together in June for round 1 - racing in the Rockies is about to look very different. That is my promise to every single one of you out there.
Huge shoutout to @juliavdvaart and @bill3bingham - bringing back the Mountain States Cup would not be possible without both of them.
