Motus Off Road is a coalition of race directors and athletes dedicated to fostering the growth of off road endurance sports. We bring decades of event production experience with seasoned races from across the country. Participants who compete in Motus Off Road races will earn points based on performance in their respective age group. You may race in as many events as you wish, however, only your top performances of the season will count toward the series championships.
Off-Road Multisport is excited to announce that a portion of the proceeds from Motus Bonita Lakes Triathlon & Duathlon will go to benefit the Mississippi Blues Composite MTB Team. This team of young athletes are currently tearing up the trails in the Alabama Cycling Association 2022 NICA season. The Blues are also very active in National Interscholastic Cycling Association's GRiT (Girls Riding Together) program whose effort is to recruit and retain more female coaches and athletes. The team will be helping at the race set up, aid stations, clean up, and much more. When you sign up for Motus Bonita Lakes, not only do you get to race one of the best venues in Mississippi, but you help support young athletes and foster their love of outdoor endurance sports.
