FoCo Fondo p/b Fat Tire

NEW DATE! 12-miles of fun focused on the amazing Fort Collins bike path infrastructure. We'll be exploring some gravel at one of Fort Collins' most picturesque fun to ride parks, complete with a rest stop for families to take in the adventure and activities to explore along the way. The route is very flat.

This route is not chip-timed as it is designed for newer riders and families. All riders will still receive number plates.

This route leaves New Belgium Brewing SATURDAY at 10:00am. Here for It Route. In addition to the Friday night packet pick up, 12-mile riders are able to pick up their packets on Saturday at the expo starting at 9:15am ahead of the 10am start.

Journey beyond the city limits to see new sites and roads. This route will explore some gems north and east of Fort Collins that many have not explored. A mid-way rest stop will provide a breaking point to take it all in and refuel before winding your way back into town. You’ll stumble across an Oasis with about four-miles to go. Elevation gain is approximately 1300 feet with gentle rollers.

This route will be chip-timed and have overall podiums, as well as age-group, para, and single speed podium and prizes.

The course is hand marked and laid out by Zack Allison, master route builder for other sites such as Gravel Graceland, and Bike Sports. By the numbers, this route may look easily obtainable, but the road surface, B roads, exposure, and winds can test any riders will to survive.
