Leadville 100 Mtn Bike Camp

2009 Header

 
July 18-19, 2011 – Registration for this and all CTS Leadville 100 Camps will be conducted by lottery. See below for details. 

 

Looking to ride your fastest-ever Leadville 100, or wondering what you got yourself into if it’s your first time? Then what better place to join your friends – and make new ones – than on the Leadville course in the shadow of Mounts Elbert and Massive? Come ride with CTS Coaches and learn the riding skills needed to be confident, powerful, and successful in Leadville come August. Pre-ride the crucial parts of the course and learn strategies to get you through the race and through unanticipated obstacles. We will also cover basic on-trail bike repair and other topics, including preparation for different types of weather conditions, optimal nutrition and hydration strategies, and crew support.
 
This is an intensive race-specific camp that will challenge your skills and fitness. Expect to spend at least 5 hours per day on the bike. This camp is best suited for intermediate and advanced mountain bikers, and anyone planning on competing in the LT100 Mountain Bike Race. We recommend that your bicycle be equipped with a 12-32 or 12-34 rear cassette or appropriate singlespeed gearing (gear ratio or 1.8:1 or less) for this camp.
 
Inclusive in this camp is an entry into the 2011 Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike race. We are also happy to include full on-course race-day support to all athletes who attend CTS Leadville 100 Training Camps.
