Back story, I love riding bikes. I’ve done a lot of cool shit on bikes, like bike packing through the Rockies, pedaling through Tuscany and I’ve been to the Cyclocross World Championships. Ok, I didn’t actually race or even ride my bike at the World Championships, but I did drink a lot of beer while watching a bunch of really fast Europeans and a couple of Americans ride their bikes.
Every cyclist has a bucket full of dream rides and races they want to do and I would be willing to bet that the Leadville 100 is on many of their lists.
The only problem is that the race is so popular you either have to qualify by doing certain qualifier races or taking your chances with the lottery. There is also the option to apply to ride on a fundraising team. That’s the option I went with this year and was fortunate enough be chosen to ride for First Descents.
Feel free to support First Descents by clicking here to donate and following along on my YouTube channel Bikes Kill Cancer as I put in a lot of miles on the mountain bike in the months to come.
Holy Crap I am excited.
