Bighorn Cycling Events in Gypsum

Gypsum is proud to host the annual Bighorn cycling events—two incredible rides that bring cyclists together to explore the scenic backroads, river valleys, and mountain views that make our area so special. Whether you're new to riding or looking for a bigger challenge, there’s a route for every level of adventure.

What to Expect
Both the gravel and road events showcase the stunning landscapes surrounding Gypsum. Riders will travel through a mix of paved roads, hard‑packed dirt, and classic Colorado backcountry. Each event offers multiple route options, some geared toward seasoned cyclists looking for a long endurance ride, and others perfect for riders who want a shorter, more approachable experience.

Why Riders Love It
• Beautiful, varied terrain with unforgettable views
• Routes designed for different skill levels
• A fun and supportive cycling community atmosphere
• Opportunities to challenge yourself or simply enjoy a great day outside

A Community Effort
The Town of Gypsum helps support these events through route coordination, on‑site services, and partnerships with local organizations. Camping, aid stations, and other rider amenities make the experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.

Whether you're gearing up for gravel, hitting the pavement for a road ride, or cheering on participants, the Bighorn cycling events are a fantastic way to celebrate the outdoors and experience Gypsum in a new way.
