Blue River Century:

The 3rd Annual Blue River Century is a biking event to benefit the Lance Armstrong Foundation. The Blue River Century is one of the first cycling events in Colorado to have the goal of being a “zero waste” event. We diverted 94% of the waste generated by our 2009 event from going in landfills! For more information about this event and registration, please contact the official Blue River Century website at www.bluerivercentury.com.
