CHEQUAMEGON 2020 UPDATE
August 10, 2020
Dear Cheqfat Family –
2020 is not the year any of us envisioned. We know many of you were hoping, as we were, that the 38th annual Chequamegon had a chance.
Unfortunately, we have decided to cancel the 2020 Chequamegon MTB Festival presented by Trek. Sigh. There were many deciding factors in coming to this decision, but to be honest, hosting a few thousand riders didn’t seem like the right thing to do. The safety of our team, volunteers, community and participants outweighed the benefits of hosting the event.
We share your pain in not being able to gather all together in big woods of northwestern Wisconsin and ride. Because of this unfortunate cancellation, all registered participants have been given:
- COMPLIMENTARY DEFERRAL to the 2021 Chequamegon MTB Festival Presented by Trek on Saturday, September 18, 2021. At this time, no action is needed to complete your deferral. After Septemeber 10, a non-transferrable complimentary code to register for the 2021 event will be provided.
- Registered participants can instead opt FOR A REFUND of 70% of registration fee, minus processing fees. For the refund option, email cheqmtb@ltevents.zendesk.com no later than September 10, 2020.
To scratch your Chequamegon itch, we offer the Cheq Challenge 37.5. Ride the marked/GPS course (40 or Short and Fat) on your own, and earn some Chequamegon swag, while still supporting CAMBA and the Life Time Foundation. The course will be available September 4-20, with swag pick-up at the Chequamegon MTB Festival from 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM, Friday-Satuday, 10am-3pm on Sunday (*new hours). Check out our website for more details.
We’ll miss our Chequamegon family this year but put September 18 on your 2021 calendar!
Thank you for your continued support.

2020 Course Maps
In 2019 we were forced to make some slight changes to our course maps due to excess rain water on some of the trails, but those changes went over extremely well with our riders! You all loved it - said it added even more mountain…
