The first ever 24 Hours of Leadville, an endurance mountain bike race sponsored by Buff Inc., will be held in Leadville, Colorado September 4th and 5th.
The 24 Hours of Leadville is a race dovetailing off the success of its sister event, the recent Life Time Fitness Leadville Trail 100. But unlike the solo-only format of Leadville 100, individuals and teams will race to see how many miles they can ride over a 24-hour period. The course will feature the same characteristics that have made the Life Time Fitness Leadville Trail 100 a world-famous event. The course boasts incredibly technical singletrack, fast double track, and 2,100 feet of elevation gain per 17.6-mile lap.
Rebecca Rusch, sponsored athlete and recent Leadville Trail 100 winner, will be at the race to conduct a skills clinic while also racing as part of a team. Rebecca is no stranger to the Leadville course having won the women’s race the last two years. Rebecca broke the course record this year with a blistering fast time of 7 hours, 47 minutes.
The 24 Hours of Leadville race categories include: solo (m/f), tandem, solo single-speed (m/f), four-person (m/f/coed), duo (m/f/coed) and corporate teams of up to 10 racers (m/f/coed).
