With more gravel races than ever in the Western Slope, it is safe to say more riders are trading skinny smooth tires for thicker knobby tires. MAD Racing Colorado, based in Grand Junction, has been getting more requests for services and timing such events. We are stoked to be part of this movement! Below you can find all things gravel happening in the Western Slope. Please note that not all are serviced by MAD, we wanted to add those so you can continue to ride your heart out all summer!
