A week long gravel adventure through the heart of Colorado. As supported as you'd like it to be, Misti and Louie will be driving the big truck and hauling all the gear you don't want to carry on your bike. They will also happily sag you through the parts you aren't feeling.

Each day's ride will be jubilant and different, way out there but never too far, a test of your fitness and talent but with a soft underlying caring group mentality. The goal is to get everyone to the end of each day, celebrate the accomplishment of what you just did while setting you up for success the next day with good food and lodging. Leave when you want, go as fast as you like, be part of the group when it suits you and find some solo soul time when you need.

Seven days of riding, it's in the mountains so expect to climb and descend, bring gear that allows you to go up high and handle the elements, a bike that works perfectly and an attitude of companionship and gratitude. The group will support you but not drag you so pack your skills set and ask for help when you find yourself wanting, and pitch in when the moment arises.

It's going to be great. Please ask all the questions you would like but know that we want you to come and do this. Non-riding spouses are very welcome.
