Colorado welcomes the best from Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Arizona, and New Mexico to battle it out at Sandstone Ranch Cyclocross. This event is a joint production between Watts Marketing the producer of the famed Cross Vegas and Without Limits Productions of the CYCLO X Series. The course takes us to Sandstone Park in Longmont, Colorado.

The battle ground consists of tight grass, fast flowing pavement, sidewalk transitions, run ups, and even more grass to showcase those off camber technical skills!

The Four Seasons of Horsetooth Mountain Bike Challenge is a grass-roots un-event with no entry fees and no real start times and is ridden on the two solstices and two equinoxes in Horsetooth Mountain Park and Lory State Park. By being required to complete at least three seasonal stages, we hope it encourages you to come ride if your schedule doesn’t permit on any given stage. The course is designed to offer what we think are the best sections of trail in our backyard. The course should take about 2-3 hours. Had fun in the autumn? Bring a friend for the winter stage! Don’t own a fancy team kit or 20lb race bike? Neither do we! Come ride for the fun and challenge of completing all four events! Check out the rules here.

You read it right bro… An enduro… With fat bikes… On snow!

Time to bust out your pogies, ski goggles, frost proof dropper posts, and fleece lined knee pads, because it’s about to get fat. Awesome 17 mile singletrack loop with four timed stages. Could be packed powder, could be ice. Could be 6″ wide packed trail with deep powder on the side, could be some rocks and roots showing. Will definitely be a fun day rolling your fatty with like minded fat feinds.

If you’re reading this and considering entering – you’re already amongst friends – so sign up. Do this for yourself; not bragging rights.

This adventure lends itself to the longer side of things and you should be prepared for the unexpected.   If you sign up we immediately believe you to be capable of determining what gear is appropriate for YOU for an adventure of this magnitude in regards to clothing, tools, nutrition that are beyond the required items below.

8 am February 1st, 2020

Distance:

50ish miles

Aid Stations:

There will be aid stations with sweet/salty snacks plus Steamboat’s very own Honeystinger items.  Water will be available as well but you should be prepared to spend 40-50 miles alone in the wilderness with ample supplies.  You can stock up before heading out – just be sure to leave some for everyone else ok?

Location:

25 miles north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Course Headquarters is The Hahn’s Peak Roadhouse; located in the sleepy, quirky and at times rambunctious village of Hahn’s Peak – basically directly across the street from Steamboat Lake State Park.

• Front and rear safety lights to be on at all times. We are sharing the trails with snowmobilers. It’s important for them to be able to see us.
