State Games of America

The State Games of America is August 2nd – 5th here in Colorado Springs. There will be a road race and time trial and mountain bike race. Pikes Peak Velo is helping out with the cycling events and I’ll be helping with registration for the road race on Saturday the 4th.

Normally you have to qualify to do participate in the State Games of America but Colorado residents don’t have to qualify.

Here’s the eligibility details. In order to qualify for the State Games of America, participants must have won a gold, silver or bronze medal in a SGA sport in their local State Games in a qualifying year (2005 or 2006 Summer, 2006 or 2007 Winter), won a medal in the 2005 State Games of America or be residents of Colorado for at least 30 days prior to competition. College students, U.S. military personnel and their families who are stationed in Colorado, are also eligible to participate.
