Breckenridge Epic

12 August 2012 to 17 August 2012

240 miles of primo high-alpine riding served up Summit County-style in six stages.

Total vertical? Just shy of 37,000 feet. That may seem short, but we’re at altitude here. We’ve constructed these courses so that the top pros will finish in 3.5 to 4.5 hours each day. Mileage (or the perceived lack of it) is NOT the best way to look at this. Come expecting a cake-walk. I dare you.
