The NoCo Gravel Stage Race is a grassroots initiative to help you explore new routes in Northern Colorado and connect with like-minded gravel riders in our community.
Participation in any stage is voluntary and there are no entry fees or registration. Your goal is to complete the designated Strava segment within the month that it is active.
Please always remember that bike riding is inherently dangerous. All routes are open to traffic, so obey the rules of the road. Ultimately, you are responsible for your own comfort zone, safety, and well-being while riding.
The Rules
- Participation in any stage is voluntary and there are no entry fees or registration.
- There are 5 “Stages” (Strava segments) to complete – starting in April and ending in August.
- Your goal is to complete the designated Strava segment within the month that it is active.
- You can ride the segment as many times as you would like within that month. Your fastest time will be recorded through Strava’s leaderboards.
- Accolades will be given to the fastest male, female, and nonbinary participants each month.
- At the end of August, the riders with the lowest cumulative time across all five segments will also be recognized.
- Please always remember that bike riding is inherently dangerous. All routes are open to traffic, so obey the rules of the road and be good ambassadors for all cyclists.
- Ultimately, you are responsible for your own comfort zone, safety, and well-being while riding.
- This is all for fun! Yes, some folks will be trying to go fast, but most will just be checking off the stages to complete. Enjoy it and be nice to everyone!
