1 mountain biking event in Hayden, Colorado

Hayden and West Routt County have some excellent road and mountain biking opportunities, on a great network of quiet, rural gravel roads.

The ride has several options including:

• 31 mile scenic ‘Gravel Grinder’ north on the Cog that starts with a challenging ride on pavement up the Cog then circles west on gravel roads around Elkhead Reservoir.

• 27 mile ‘Mud Route’, almost entirely on gravel and dirt, starts with a spectacular climb up the Middle Cog then heads along remote backcountry routes including the homestead of Ferry Carpenter.

• 43 mile ‘Combined Ride’ which features the best of both routes.

The “Combined” the "Gravel Grinder", "Mud Route" rides begin at 9:00am.
