The schedule for the 2008 West Virginia Mountain Bike Association (WVMBA) Point Series is set and now online (see it below and on the iPlayOutside bike schedule). There are 16 series races. This does not include Ultra events and non-series WVMBA sanctioned events.

Once again, Cannondale is the proud overall sponsor. Photos for the all of the 2008 Points Series events will be provided by iPlayOutside. If you have any questions please contact WVMBA at (304)612-0301 or e-mail wvmba@hotmail.com.

About the Series: The Point Series allows competitors to accumulate points towards spring, fall, and yearly championship status. WVMBA attempts to compose a series of sanctioned races that are judged as historically exceptional events. WVMBA expects to award over $10,000 in cash and prizes to series champions at the conclusion of the final series race. The goal of the series is to encourage racers to participate in more races and generally improve the quality of MTB racing in WV. For more information go to www.wvmba.com.
