Advocacy

Bike racing is an incredible thing. It brings together a community of people that share a passion for getting outside on two-wheels and exploring nature. We love the gravel family and are so excited to be able to interlace it with our incredible Steamboat Springs community! Below are a few things that we feel strongly about when it comes to community and the gorgeous lands that make it all possible. Click on the title for more information on each.

Advocacy Partners

We are thrilled to work with some awesome local organizations who are doing great things in our community!

Boys & Girls Club of Steamboat Springs

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest Colorado provides a safe, positive place for the kids in Craig and Steamboat Springs communities. Their Clubs have full time, part time, and junior staff youth development professionals, who mentor, teach and play with the youth we serve.

At the Clubs, members are involved in educational and fun youth-development programs that give each child a sense of competence, power to influence decisions, usefulness and belonging–all qualities which will help them make the most of their lives and become the leaders of today and tomorrow.

They rely on members and supporters to develop a responsible and cohesive community movement that focuses on two-wheeled transportation and recreation with increased access for all riders.
