DURANGO, Colo.—The Tour of Durango, a mountain bike/run/hiking event designed to showcase Durango’s recreational trails system originally scheduled for Oct. 12, has been postponed until Summer 2009.
According to organizers, new opportunities intended to bring a broader scope to the event and more excitement for the community were presented to the planning committee.
“We realized that the event as it was originally proposed was going to get us just part of the way to where we want to be, which is providing an event the injects new energy to the Durango mountain bike and running scenes,” said event director Jeff Frost.
Plans for next year include partnering with an existing event to bring visitors into Durango for a much larger-scale happening with multi-day mountain bike and trail running opportunities.
“With continued strong support from event partners and sponsors Alpine Bank, Carvers Brewing Company, The Durango Herald, Studio 21, The Point, Trails 2000, and the Southwest Conservation Corps on board for the future, the 2009 event is in great shape,” said Beth Drum, marketing director for Alpine Bank.
Tour of Durango is designed a fundraiser for Trails 2000 and the Southwest Conservation Corps. Trails 2000, a nonprofit organization formed nearly 20 years ago is responsible for building and maintaining the trails in and around Durango. The Southwest Conservation Corps employs and trains young people and completes conservation projects on public lands.
All registered 2008 participants have been contacted and their entry fees will be refunded. For further information, contact Jeff Frost, 435.884.3515, or www.bluewolfevents.com.
