About Us

We’ve all had that moment, the one where we finally cleaned the rock garden, put air under our wheels, broke our personal record. We’ve been with our friends when it happened to them. We’ve shared beers in the parking lot and hoisted shovels and rocks to dig trail. Yes, mountain biking is riding a bike in the mountains, but it’s also a way of life for the Colorowdies.

The Colorowdies Mountain Bike Crew uses mountain bikes to explore and enhance our Colorado backyard. Through social events like group rides, we foster friendships and community. By volunteering with local land agencies to build and maintain trails, we act as stewards of our playground. Through our race team, we help riders progress and achieve their goals. Infused in everything we do is a sense of fun, inclusiveness, and positivity. This, to us, is the essence of Colorowdies.

Our community is open to new members and ideal for the rider looking for fun and inclusiveness. We operate through our Facebook Group as a membership portal that acts as a forum and our primary means of communication members. This is where you can join the conversation and get plugged into to our trail work efforts, group rides, and events. Membership is free and the best to stay informed with the lastest Colorado mountain biking news and updates.  

The Colorowdies Mountain Bike Crew is a community of over 2,200 members and growing. Within our community we have an Ambassador Team of 30 riders who represent the three pillars of what it means to be a Colorowdie: Connection, Progression, and Stewardship. Although our ambassador team represents the community, each rider that follows us is part of the Colorowdies community and can participate in all of our events. Our Community and Ambassadors are managed by our Leadership Team. We are all Colorowdies, but you can call us Rowdies.

Colorowdies is a Colorado non-profit organization.

OUR CORE VALUES

connection

We were all new riders at one time. Many of us rode solo for years. The Colorowdies Mountain Bike Crew connects us. Our open group setting welcomes all new members to join our group rides, get in the conversation, and encourage progression. We ask our members to be contributors of our community.

progression

Improving skills and progressing as riders is integral to our culture. We push limits and challenge each other to get to get stronger, faster, and more confident on the bike.  We do this in a fun, encouraging, and competitive atmosphere. We have all seen fears dissipate and confidence skyrocket.

stewardship

The sustainability of mountain biking is dependent on our acts of stewardship. Giving back to the communities that are doing things right for bikes through trail building efforts is a core value of the Colorowdies Mountain Bike Crew. #DigToRide
