experience through the aspens in Colorado’s backcountry will draw not only professional riders, but also amateur cyclists looking for a bucket list endurance experience.

The last day will have the APEX outdoor festival and expo (10:00am-6:00pm) where there will be food trucks all day, a Fat Tire and New Belgium Beer Garden, local vendors, live music, awards ceremony and after party!
