BEFORE YOU REGISTER, PLEASE CONSIDER
Registration is limited to the first 2,200 riders, so register early to be guaranteed a spot! This event has sold out many times in the past.
Ages 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
Tandems are allowed on the course, but each person on the tandem bicycle must register separately.
All participants will receive a bike plate and rider bib. The bib number includes a tear-off meal ticket for the post-ride lunch and a raffle ticket to enter for a number of prize drawings. Your bike plate should be attached to the front of your handlebars.
The first 1,500 registered riders will be guaranteed their size of jersey and tech tee. Register early!
Please note: county and city roads, trails (i.e. The Riverfront Trail), parking spaces, overlooks, and other public spaces will remain open and available to members of the general public who have not registered for Tour of the Moon. We simply ask that if you have not paid for the “Tour of the Moon” services in the way of catered aid stations, portalets, bike mechanics, etc that you do not utilize them. It should also be noted that The Ride Collective pays a Colorado National Monument entry fee for all of its participants.

REFUND POLICY
Your Entry is non-refundable.
You will see optional rider cancellation coverage offered by a third party available for purchase during the registration process. The optional insurance generally covers accidents and illness leading up to the event. The optional coverage is not a ‘change my mind policy’. It does not cover change of plans, lack of training, minor injuries, general sickness, bad weather day, etc. Please consider purchasing this additional rider insurance if you would like that extra peace of mind and check the policy limitations carefully before you purchase.

BIKE LIGHTS REQUIRED
The Colorado National Monument requires that all cyclists (regardless of whether they are in an organized event or riding on their own) have a white light that is visible from a distance of at least 500 feet to the front and a red light that is visible from at least 200 feet to the back. The Monument has 3 tunnels, bored through solid rock, that do not have lights, thus the reason for this safety requirement. All cyclists and support vehicles are required to USE the lights in the three tunnels (you may turn them off once you’ve exited).
Get our Cateye Light Set for $25, when you register!
Our partnering bike shops in the Grand Valley – Over the Edge Sports, Ruby Canyon Cycles and Brown Cycles – will have a limited number of lights available as well.

Deadline for any changes to your registration is August 14 (i.e. jersey size, merchandise, etc.). It’s important we capture all your current information in order to best serve you!
