Jan. 26 The East Side Epic – a great race on fast snowpacked roads and snowmobile trails through the Historic Mining District.

Feb. 9 The Tennessee Pass Night Jam – Bring the lights for this exciting night race on Tennessee Pass Nordic Center’s groomed ski trails.

March 1 Mineral Belt Mayhem – Come to Leadville for the first ever bike race on Lake County’s Mineral Belt Trail. A 12 mile groomed bike/ski loop around town. Afterwards watch the ski-joring on Harrison Ave. Horses pulling skiers over 8ft jumps to a flat landing!

Leadville Winter Bike Races

December 7th, 2006

Update: 2008 Leadville Winter Bike Series information is here.

Once again this year, Melanzana and Bicycle Haven are putting on a winter mountain bike race series in Leadville. There will be 3 races. The dates are January 27, February 10, and February 24. There’s more info on a thread at MTBR.com.

Nearly every year I think of going and giving it a try but never have. It would be good practice if I ever decide to attempt the Iditarod Trail Invitational. I know a couple people that have done it. Several years ago I thought pretty seriously about doing it but I’ve gotten wimpy with cold in my old age. Actually it’s because my winter gear is old and worn out and I’ve spent all my money on other things like RAAM. Of course Jill has said you can make do with whatever you have lying around so I guess I don’t really have an excuse.
