Strambecco rates the top road cycling events in the Rocky Mountains for 2022 based on a variety of factors including reputation, route quality, location, rider feedback, and the overall uniqueness of the event or race. Spanning Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming, Rocky Mountain terrain features of Strambecco’s best list include tall peaks, canyons, basins and valleys, and forested regions. Naturally you can expect lot’s of elevation gain along with events that take place at high base elevations.
If we had to pick the best of the best, or those you’d classify as bucket list events, we’d recommend the Triple Bypass Gran Fondo in August, a Colorado classic. We’d also recommend the Mt. Evans Hill Climb which is one of the best Hill Climb events in the country. Also, Ride the Rockies is one of the longest running and most exceptional multi-day events World-over. We also find a strong correlation between the best events and professional event producers. In the Rockies, premiere event producers include Outside Events, Team Evergreen Cycling, and the Gran Fondo National Series
