You’ve probably been hearing about a bike race coming through Golden this weekend, and wondering whether it will affect you. The answer is, if you’re in town, it will. There will be a lot of road closures, particularly on Sunday, and we expect huge crowds. However, it should be a lot of fun and quite interesting.
A number of world-class racing teams are participating in this race, including the top three contenders from this year’s Tour de France. The race is taking place over the course of a week, and has already begun.
The cyclists will begin the last stage of the race here in Golden on Sunday morning and will end in Denver. They’re taking a circuitous route, which will bring them through downtown Golden three times on Sunday morning.
A team of incredibly dedicated and hard-working volunteers has been preparing for this for months, and they’ve put together a very helpful brochure that covers road closures, parking, and a complete schedule of events.
