Every year many cyclist forget about that "silent" set of races in the Front Range sanctioned by USA Cycling, these are the Collegiate Tour. Maybe because many think that these races are only for college teams which is not true. If you are one of those guys who want to race in a field isn't reaching it max limit size or if you are looking for some real race experience without the crowds then maybe you should seriously considering trying some of these races out. One day licenses are $10 and full license is $60 so you do the math and decide. Maybe some day soon you may just have to buy 1 license for all your racing needs if the ACA became a local Association under USA Cycling. We at 303cycling got to interview Steve Johnson on this topic so stay tuned to that one.

March 21st race IS ON!

Church is back in session starting March 7th in Niwot Colorado as DBCEvents puts on a 3 race series (7th, 14th and 21st) replacing the former Stazio course due to road closure. One of the most interesting aspect of these races is the schedule, Fast - Faster - Fastest. There is also strong support for juniors. These events have historically been very popular and contrary to typical thought, these races are FAST because many use these events as a gage to measure their winter training and others use it as a wake up call to train. These events also go a long ways to help support other great DBCEvents like the Boulder Roubaix
