Organized by the Arunachal Cycling Association in collaboration with the Cycling Federation of India (CFI), the championships will feature competitions across Senior, Junior, and Sub-Junior categories. Cyclists from various parts of the country are expected to participate, highlighting the growing popularity of mountain biking in India.
The races will unfold on a demanding 3.9-kilometer technical trail at the Game Village site in Roing, designed to push riders’ limits with its rugged terrain, steep inclines, and scenic Eastern Himalayan backdrop. To ensure participant convenience, boarding and lodging facilities will be available from February 10 to 16, along with transportation services from Tinsukia Railway Station.
