USA Pro Challenge gets jump on 2014 and announces host cities
Posted: November 5, 2013 Filed under: Colorado, Cycling | Tags: #ProChallenge, Aspen, Bicycle Racing, Breckenridge, Colorado, Colorado Springs, Crested Butte, Cycling, Denver, Gunnison, USA Pro Challenge, Vail, Woodland Park Leave a commentLast day of race to be voted on by viewers and cyclists and Tom Danielson got his wish
The USA Pro Challenge has announced the 2014 race. The host start and finish cities are:
Stage 1: Monday, Aug. 18 – Aspen Circuit Race
Stage 2: Tuesday, Aug. 19 – Aspen to Mt. Crested Butte
Stage 3: Wednesday, Aug. 20 – Gunnison to Monarch Mountain (mountaintop finish)
Stage 4: Thursday, Aug. 21 – Colorado Springs Circuit Race
Stage 5: Friday, Aug. 22 – Woodland Park to Breckenridge
Stage 6: Saturday, Aug. 23 – Vail Individual Time Trial
Stage 7: Sunday, Aug. 24 – ???
The question mark for the final stage is a pretty neat finish idea. The public will get to vote for the final stage they want. The choices are:
Denver Circuit Race similar to the final stage of the 2013 race
Start in Golden (2012 Stage 6 start city) and finish in Denver
Start in Boulder (2012 Stage 6 finish city) and finish in Denver
Start in Boulder and end in Golden
Go here to vote on the race you want. What’s Your Vote For Stage 7? Voting gets you a 15% discount off USA Pro Challenge items in the store.
The course:
The course is similar to the very successful 2013 race. Cities with two things; money and people who want to watch a bicycle race are involved. So Aspen and Vail are probably always going to be on the race circuit. The turn out and support in Gunnison, Crested Butte and Mt Crested Butte is 100%, even though that is only 20% of what Vail turns out. Breckenridge and Colorado Springs are next as far as both and the perennial Denver is becoming the home to great cycling because of work of past volunteers and the USA Pro Challenge.
Merry Christmas Tom Danielson
The only location with issues will be the finish on Monarch Mountain. This finish is a long way from Gunnison and close to Chaffee County, but still lacking in numbers of people. However it fulfills team Garmin Sharp’s Tom Danielson’s Christmas wish to have a mountain stage win at the Pro Challenge. Now he better win that stage!
But that will be a great finish no matter how many people. If you are a fan of the tour in Europe everyone watches, this will become a classic just like those finishes. It is a long and grueling climb. Probably only Wolf Creek Pass from the west is steeper. Finding a good place to see the race is going to be tough so get their early to stake out your spot.
Overall the race course looks fantastic so far. Until we see the actual routes we’ll not know the elevation or distances, however with the starts and finishes already picked this is destined to be another great week of cycling in Colorado.
It is going to be a great week of bicycle racing in Colorado.

USA ProChallenge stage 2: Exciting and Exhausting
Posted: August 22, 2012 Filed under: Cycling | Tags: Colorado, Crested Butte, Crested Butte Colorado, Gunnison, Montrose, Tejay Van Garderen, United States, USA Pro Challenge Leave a commentTwo things stood out in the USA ProChallenge stage 2. Exhausted riders. So tired that just feet after the finish line they were holding on to the fences. Too tired to get off their bikes.
The second thing was Tejay Van Garderen (USA) of BMC Racing who had his first professional win.
Of Course there are always locals…….
After every race the bikes are examined top to bottom front to back. Everything is cleaned, checked, lubed and put back together.
Can you say Truck Insurance?
I’m always curious what people think when something like this comes to town. Do the people who are working to make it happen think it is worth the effort.
At the 2011 ProChallenge I asked the Colorado State Highway Patrol motorcycle riders if they were having a good time. To a person they got big grins on their faces and said yes.
Today as I was driving up to Mt. Crested Butte I rolled down my window and asked a Gunnison law enforcement officer if it was worth the effort. I got the immediately politically correct yes. Then a second later there was a big smile and the officer looked at me and said yes nodding his head.
Many in a city like Montrose or Gunnison will look at the cost, the disruption and try to determine if there was “value” in bringing the 2012 ProChallenge to their town. I think in both cases, if you come close to breaking even, even in these tough times, putting a grin on a cops face, watching people cheering madly for every rider as they toil up the hills, seeing people just having a blast makes it very worthwhile!
Good job Mt. Crested Butte, Montrose, Gunnison and every community that helped bring this to Colorado today. I look forward to tomorrow.
