The 26 race American Mountain Bike Challenge calendar features three new events. It again provides mountain bikers with the opportunity to qualify for the 2008 U.S. Mountain Bike National Championships, July 2008 at Mount Snow Resort in Vermont. With events in 17 states, the AMBC also provides entry level racing opportunities for competitors interested in participating in the sport of competitive mountain biking in a local or regional setting.
Beginning March 8 with the Spa City Extreme Six Hour Mountain Bike Race, a marathon event in Hot Springs, AK, the 2008 AMBC stretches seven months before concluding for the third consecutive year with the Piney Hills Classic XV in Ruston, LA, October 25-26. The first cross-country event on the AMBC Calendar will again be the Southeastern Regional Championship Series opener in Gainesville, FL on March 16. The initial gravity contest will be the 20th annual Keyesville Classic in Lake Isabella, CA, March 15-16.
 
Created in 1996, the AMBC primarily features Olympic-style cross-country racing, but also features gravity racing and other disciplines of competitive mountain biking.
