Rides, Races & Events

The 2026 FoCo Fondo Rider Guide is now available.

Week One of the Stadium Crit series in Timnath kicked off with 48 racers. Week 1 winners were Cameron Krause in the Juniors category, Isa Naschold in the Women's field, Christian Kadletz in the C's, Ben Zukowski in the B's, and Steven Truesdale in the A's. With the opening round now complete, each rider also sits atop their respective omnium standings heading into Week 2.

Incycle NoCo is rolling out a new Sunday morning group ride series. The Incycle Grand Prix, a season long, points based competition built around fast road group rides and consistent participation. Starting from the Incycle South store at Harmony and Lemay at 8 a.m., the series runs May through October with 12 events across rotating north and south routes, each featuring sprint, KOM, and rouleur segments that contribute to both individual leaderboards and an overall GC.

Here's the 2026 NoCo/SoWyo weekday race schedule for Spring, Summer, and Fall of 2026. The schedule includes information on Tuesday and Thursday night races held in Fort Collins, Timnath, and Laramie.

The NoCo Gravel Stage Race is a grassroots way to explore new routes across Northern Colorado and connect with other gravel riders in the community. No set times or dates.

Join the Incycle crew for a chill weekly MTB ride from the Soderberg Trailhead at Horsetooth Open Space. All are welcome. Lights might be a good idea depending on daylight.

Supported by Trek and the First City Cycling Team, this group ride will find the best gravel rides around Fort Collins. Rides are anywhere from 40-70 miles in length. Although they are not no-drop, usually groups will form so that you're not stuck out on your own. Make sure you have enough food/water/gear to support yourself for the entire ride because there aren't always stops along the way.
