“America’s Race” Is Back for Its Second Run

For seven consecutive days, the world’s top athletes will race through the majestic Colorado Rockies, reaching higher altitudes than they have ever endured as they ascend over three mountain passes, each exceeding 12,000 feet in elevation.  After attracting more than 1 million spectators in 2011, making it one of the largest cycling events in U.S. history, the USA Pro Cycling Challenge is back for 2012.   Featuring a challenging, 683-mile course with over 42,000 feet of vertical climbing, the second annual race will spotlight the best of the best in professional cycling and some of America’s most beautiful scenery.

Referred to as “America’s Race,” the USA Pro Cycling Challenge will take place August 20-26, 2012, a week proclaimed by Governor John Hickenlooper as the “Colorado Cycling Holiday,” and will travel through 12 host cities from Durango to Denver.

Colorado Springs will host the Stage 5 finish, the final leg of the race taking cyclists from Breckenridge to the Springs, on Friday, August 24.
