All Saints Day. For years avid mountainbikers had this day marked in their calendar as a sign to register for the Belgian Mountainbike Challenge. So it seems fit, on the day we honour the dead, to make an announcement on the future of the race. After 12 years and 10 successful editions, we’ve decided BeMC had a good run and deserves to retire. It’s official, there will be no BeMC stage race in 2025. Is this the end of the race? Who knows what the future will bring? We might come back someday, try something different, or maybe we’ve stepped away for good on a high note. But one thing is for sure, we are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported and participated in BeMC over the years, from volunteers and sponsors to each of our valued participants. Together, we’ve built an amazing event and created memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you all and until we meet again.
