MOFO Ride returns to Park City trails Saturday to support National Ability Center
PARK CITY, Utah — Mountain bikers will take on some of Park City’s demanding trails Saturday as the National Ability Center hosts its annual MOFO Ride, bringing adaptive and traditional cyclists together for a mountain biking challenge they won’t soon forget.
Founded by Craig White, the MOFO Ride centers around reaching the top of Park City’s “Puke Hill.”
Adaptive riders, including hand cyclists, ride alongside cyclists on traditional stand-up bikes. The event is intended to highlight what is possible on two or three wheels while supporting the NAC’s mission of empowering people with disabilities through sport, recreation, and educational programs.
The 2026 ride offers three route options, including one specifically for adaptive athletes.
Riders can choose a 14-mile adaptive-only route or one of two routes ranging from 18 to 30 miles, with varying levels of difficulty. All routes start at the National Ability Center, with shuttle service available back to the NAC at the end of the ride.
The ride’s signature challenge is Puke Hill, a climb that has become closely associated with MOFO since the event was created. Routes also incorporate Pladsen Hill in Round Valley as another climbing challenge.
For the NAC, the ride is part of its broader adaptive recreation programming. The organization, founded in Park City in 1985, offers programs including cycling and mountain biking, skiing, equestrian activities, climbing, and other outdoor recreation for people with disabilities.
The ride is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 26, at 7 a.m. at the National Ability Center and proceeds support adaptive recreation. The 2026 MOFO Ride is currently open for registration through the National Ability Center.
