The Progressive Grand National Cross Country Series Announces Full 2026 Season Schedule
Paige Turner here, and I am absolutely fired up! The Progressive Grand National Cross Country Series presented by Specialized has just unleashed its full 2026 season schedule, and let me tell you — this year is going to be an absolute blockbuster!
We’re talking thirteen heart-pounding rounds of GNCC action, twelve exciting Micro rounds for the rising stars, and a full eight-round Specialized Turbo eMTB National Championship. Ten different states, a killer mix of fan-favorite venues, and two brand-new locations that have everyone in the off-road world buzzing with excitement!
The season explodes to life on February 14-15 with the Big Buck GNCC in Union, South Carolina. Then it’s straight into the Bike Week energy with the Wild Boar GNCC in Palatka, Florida on February 28 and March 1. Round three keeps the fire burning at the legendary Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama on March 7-8 — because nothing beats hearing those bikes and ATVs roar around such an iconic track!
After a quick breather, we roll into the Camp Coker Bullet GNCC in Society Hill, South Carolina on March 28-29. But hold on — the real headline is round five: on April 18-19, GNCC Racing makes a massive return to Kentucky for the first time since 2013 with the brand-new The Dukes GNCC at Mine Made Adventure Park in Knott County. Fresh terrain, thousands of acres, and brand-new trails built just for us? Yes please — I cannot wait to see the roost fly there!
