Organized Events: Gravel

Do you have what it takes to complete the Roll Massif Challenge? This unique event will challenge cyclists from all regions of the country and of all abilities. Push yourself to new heights this summer by riding an accumulative 353 or 484 miles.

Why 353 or 484 miles? 353 is the total miles of all the event’s short routes combined. 484 miles is the total distance for all event’s long courses combined. You can do one event or all of them. You can ride gravel, you can pound pavement. It’s up to you. You have till Oct 31 to complete it. All results must be submitted by Nov 1 at midnight MST.

All registered riders will be entered into a drawing to receive prizes throughout the summer. If you’re feeling extra bold and complete all the rides, you will be entered into the grand prize drawings for a bicycle, racks, trainers and more.

Since this is a virtual challenge, you can ride wherever and whenever you want! You are welcomed to do it in segments, but you must submit the mileages within the 90-day window. If you can’t ride the whole Copper Triangle (79 miles) or Elephant Rock (100 miles) in one go, do it in stages.

We’ll re-share all the fun ways you guys are accomplishing the challenge through our social network as well as share our own attempts at this challenge too!

On the northeast side of the Palmer Divide the elevation is right around 7000′ where you can test your bike skills over “Colorado Cobbles”, race up and down long rollers, and maybe redline your engine cranking up a few short steep climbs. Or simply enjoy a day of the challenging roads of Elbert County featuring a variety of great terrain. Pedal along stretches of the panoramic views of Pikes Peak, alongside beautiful local ranches and ponderosa pine next to rock outcrops.

The Crippler is a Colorado-style gravel road race that will provide AMAZING scenery with panoramic views while simultaneously pushing your limits for climbing and descent.

What is Co2uT?

Co=Colorado, 2=To, uT=Utah.
A kick-ass gravel race from Colorado to Utah – and back!
Like no other Gravel on Earth!

Grand Junction – Fruita – Moab

Awesome, Road bike or Mountain Bike –  that you did know.

But, driving the 1-70 corridor, looking north, you see a no-man’s-land. Having lived in this region for decades we finally said “What if? What if something is out there?”

We went exploring, and unlike the conquistadors, we found the treasure – Hidden in plain sight.

Mind-blowing terrain, roads, gravel, hills, views, wildlife & epic adventure! Now, you get to find it too.

The best gravel you never knew – Racing from Colorado, across the border to Utah and back.

You are about to find what we found. It’s not no-man’s-land. It’s Desert Gravel “Like no other on Earth!” You’ll never look out ‘there’ the same way again…

Elephant Rock is a true Colorado cycling classic, dating back more than 30 years. This legend has endured for good reason — the excellent riding is matched by the festival atmosphere (think 6,000 riders loving life) and the professional support out on course.

This year we have three road courses (40, 62 and 100 miles), two gravel routes (27 and 56 miles) and one great family ride (8 miles). It all goes down June 7 in Castle Rock, Colorado, with all rides starting and finishing at Douglas County Fairgrounds.

And the rides are only half the party! The Colorado Bike Expo on June 6-7 will feature scores of cool exhibitors, demos, live music, food and more.
