Volunteer at the 2026 USAC Endurance Mountain Bike National Championships

The USA Cycling Endurance Mountain Bike National Championships are coming back to Roanoke, July 12–19, 2026—and we need YOU to help make it happen. This isn’t just another race. It’s a week-long national championship event bringing the country’s top riders to Virginia’s Blue Ridge for elite competition across multiple disciplines and age groups.

And events like this don’t run on their own. They run on volunteers.

Why Volunteer?

It truly takes a village to deliver an event of this scale. From course marshals and aid stations to registration and finish line support, volunteers are the backbone of the National Championships. Local leaders said it best during last year’s event: it “really does…require volunteers,” especially with the large crowds and race participation these championships attract.

By signing up, you’ll:

• Be part of a national-level sporting event
• Get behind-the-scenes access to championship racing
• Support athletes from across the country
• Represent the incredible outdoor community of Roanoke
• Have a whole lot of fun doing it

Be Part of Something Bigger

This is your chance to help showcase why Virginia’s Blue Ridge is one of the premier mountain biking destinations in the country—and why Roanoke continues to step up on the national stage. When riders cross the finish line, when spectators cheer, when everything runs smoothly—that’s because of volunteers like you. 

Spots fill quickly, and we rely on early commitments to make race week a success. Come be part of the team that makes it all happen.

Through our Volunteer Incentive Program, local nonprofits can earn financial support by providing volunteers to help power this major event. It’s a simple way to raise funds, engage your team, and play a meaningful role in bringing an unforgettable experience to our community.
