Leadville Silver Rush 50 Mountain Bike Race
50 miles that will put your skills and endurance to the test. Technical climbs and descents are met with the glorious mountain views of Leadville. 8,000 feet of elevation gain over these 50 miles presents an excellent test for the Stages Cycling Leadville Trail 100 MTB in August. Test your limits with the Silver Rush 50 MTB.
Iron Horse Bicycle Classic
One of Colorado’s oldest cycling traditions: a plethora of biking activities held over Memorial Day Weekend each year, including a road race to Silverton!
Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike Race
This is it, the race of all races. One hundred miles across the high-altitude, extreme terrain of the Colorado Rockies, this event was created for only the most determined athletes. Starting at 10,152 feet and climbing to 12,424 feet, you’ll be challenged to catch your breath — while the views try to take it away.
Copper Triangle Bicycle Ride
There’s never a bad time to train for a true alpine cycling classic like Copper Triangle. Start high in the Rocky Mountains and only go up from there on the 79-mile loop cresting three Colorado mountain passes – totaling 6,500 feet in elevation gain. New this year, a friendly QOM & KOM of Vail Pass, with podium presentations for the top 3 men & women.
