Each June, The Denver Post Ride The Rockies participants venture on a six-or seven-day bicycle tour across Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. The route is different each year, but always climbs a few challenging passes to showcase the state’s spectacular scenery. The Ride The Rockies’ route changes annually and the tour has visited 48 different towns with the addition of Ridgway this year.

Ride The Rockies generates more than $1,500,000 in economic impact annually in Colorado. Additionally, a $5,000 grant is donated to a nonprofit organization in each host community. All proceeds from Ride The Rockies benefit Colorado nonprofits through The Denver Post Community Foundation.
