Last year's Trials Competition at the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic was an amazing success, and a spectator favorite of the weekend. It will be back in Durango, Colorado, for a second year as part of the North American Trials Series! We will be expecting top Pro and Expert riders from around the country and will be awarding a respectable cash purse for the Pro class. There will be an invitation only trials demo at Steamworks Brewing on Sunday, May 27th at approximately 5:00pm which is typically a highlight of the weekend for both riders and spectators. Riders for the Demo will be selected based on performance, attitude, professional appearance, and representation of our sport. Riders from all classes will be considered.
The competition will take place on Saturday, May 26th 2012 with on-site registration open from 8:00am to 10:00am
The riders meeting will be immediately following registration, and attendance is required for all competitors. All Pro and Expert entries must be in by 10:00am, late fees will apply.
Pro and expert riders will ride at 1:30 P.M. All others will ride at 10:30 A.M.
There will be several other competitive racing events over the weekend including a legendary road race to Silverton, a mountain bike cross country race, downtown criterium, a time trial, as well as a veloswap and other fun events.
