One of the most beloved endurance events in Colorado. With a fast and fun single-track course located 10 minutes northwest of Fruita, Colorado, within the “posh environs” of Highline Lake State Park with its green grass and warm showers. This is a great race to kick off your riding season.
Highline Lake State Park
An oasis in the desert, Highline Lake is the recreation epicenter for the Grand Valley with two lakes, lush grass, trails and trees.
No matter the season, Highline Lake State Park is a diverse and welcome retreat. Connected to miles of trails and close to communities, the park makes an ideal base camp for exploring the Grand Junction area. Whether passing through on mountain bikes, or as an end destination, the park welcomes campers, anglers, families and groups.
