Short Track Bike Races at New Belgium
Happening Now – Tuesday Afternoons
Tuesdays – May 20th, 27th & June 3rd & 10th
This event is a lot of fun located on the land next to New Belgium. Spectators are welcome and you can view the race from inside the loop to see a lot of the action.
There are many heats but get there early because the first heat at 4:30 is the kids… This is so awesome to watch these little ones enjoy racing. Last time I watched a race a saw a young boy on a strider bike do the kids lap (once where the faster kids did it twice) and come in about last. At the finish line he high fived his dad and said “did you see how fast I went? I think I won the race”
The later races feature some amazing cyclists but there is a race for every skill level. The races are presented by Ciclismo Youth Foundation which is a local 501 (c)(3) foundation getting kids on bikes in Fort Collins. Kids race free and Adults are only $12.
