Mangled August Virtual Distance Challenge

Join the first ever Mangled Virtual Distance Challenge for the month of August. We love our friends on wheels so we wanted to create a specific challenge just for our riding and skating friends.

We know times are challenging, but I think we can all agree that riding our bikes and skating some miles are some of the few things keeping us all sane right now. Accomplishing those daily goals can make all the difference. Enter our month-long Mangled Virtual August Distance Challenge - to help keep you active, hold you accountable, provide some fun motivation, and allow you to earn some awesome swag/gear along the way!

Join us this August for the Mangled Virtual Distance Challenge brought to you by Mangled Momentum (MM) and get your miles on! Register anytime leading up to, or during the month of August. Reach various mileage milestones (100, 150, 200) and unlock awesome custom rewards designed by MM. Set yourself a specific mileage goal that you want to ride or skate during the month, and then work your tail off to hit that number!

This challenge will last from August 1-31, 2020.
NOW - AUGUST 1 - SEPTEMBER 30, 2020

You will also be helping us donate to a great cause - 10% of all proceeds will go directly to the Mountain Bike Association of Arizona. The MBAA promotes, protects and preserves the Arizona mountain biking experience through advocacy, education and responsible, recreational and competitive mountain biking. They have been hit hard this year too with the cancellation of several events which are their primary fundraiser so we want to help them out however we can. They are great partners of Mangled Momentum and we are all in this together.
