There was magic in the mountain air today as 1,800 of you pedaled your way across the champagne gravel roads of Routt County. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for joining us in this magical place we call home. Tomorrow the firepower will be explosive as we head down the road to Hayden for our Black Course Race as our pros and amateurs battle it out for a spot on the top step. Sleep well, friends. It’s about to get spicy.

Sunday’s Black Course Race was a testament to grit and determination @sbtgrvl . The amateur racers completed 80 miles, and competed for podium position and prizes while the elite fields battled 117 miles at pace that can only be described as🔥. With a 37 mile gravel circuit, full rolling enclosure at the front, and separate starts for men and women it was something very new this year. How did it play out? Watch right here…

Registration for MTN CLMB p/b Ventum is officially open and we’re asking you to show up dressed for anything but a bike ride... because this year’s theme is: Oops, I’m at the wrong event. 😅
Break out that tuxedo, ski gear, or that luau outfit you never get to wear... if it doesn’t belong on a bike, it belongs here. See you @steamboatresort after our expo closes. It’s going to be a night to remember.

Meet your official on-course, carbohydrate fuel from @maurten_official .
Maurten Gel — an actual gel. Firm, not a runny syrup. Easier to consume during exercise without mess. Built on Maurten Hydrogel Technology — allowing riders to consume more carbs per hour while limiting stomach issues.
Maurten Drink Mix — liquid carbohydrate sports fuel. Instantly changes from a liquid to a hydrogel once it meets the stomach acid — limiting the feeling of liquid sloshing while running that limits performance. Built on Maurten Hydrogel Technology.
Maurten Solid — oat- and rice-based bar for preloading or replenishing carbohydrates. A texture reset from hydrogel that easily splits into 2 equal parts for calculating carbohydrate consumption.
Explore your fuel options — ahead of race day — on maurten.com. Link in bio.
