The fastest growing race on American soil, the USA Pro Cycling Challenge offers a late-season showdown for elite contenders. From Tour de France champions to Grand Tour stage winners, an elite field will face off for an seven-day high-altitude battle. The race will conquer five climbs over 3,048 meters (10,000 feet) including Colorado’s most notorious peaks -  Cottonwood Pass and Independence Pass. The race uniquely concludes with an individual time trial, leaving the battle for the title in contention down to the last kilometer.
