The Cloud City Wheelers Sponsor
some Fun Events and Rides
Currently, the Wheelers have been coordinating with other
local organizations to provide several opportunities for
members of the community to get out and ride.
Twice Weekly Mountain Bike Rides
On Monday and Wednesday evenings, bikers meet
at the Cycles of
Life bike shop in downtown Leadville for
evening rides. All skill levels are welcome, and a ladies
ride has also been happening. Riders meet at 6pm for these
awesome outings.
Winter Mountain Bike Race Series
These unique and exciting races occur throughout the winter
in and around Leadville. Utilizing groomed nordic ski trails
and snowmobile trails, these races are a great way
to keep riding and racing during the
off-season. One of the races is even held at night!
A typical course is 12 miles with a mix of
spine-tingling conditions. Cost is $20 per race
and if you enter 3 or more races you get a free pair of
sweet Wheelers cycling socks.
All proceeds from the race series go towards Cloud City
Wheelers advocacy efforts. These races always end with plenty
of tasty food and beverages, laughter and dang good times. Come
on up and enjoy the ride!
