The Salt River Challenge is a new one day mountain bike race to be held in Alpine, Wyoming on August 24, 2019. The race is also the official kick-off and media release of our 2020 stage race event.
The event will take place in the scenic Salt River Mountains of Star Valley Wyoming. Participants will enjoy a challenging race course in Wyoming’s incredible backcountry.
The Salt River Challenge will feature a race village where participants and their families can relax and have some fun! The race village consists of bunkhouse cabins and locations for trailer and tent camping. Comforts such as showers, restrooms, and recreational space for the kids are just a few of the amenities.
This event is organized by Robert Lofgran, the creator of the Vietnam Victory Challenge (see the April 2015 issue of Cycling Utah online). Participation for the inaugural event will be limited to just 300 riders.
