Description

Professionally built to host the Colorado High School Cycling League State Championships, the Haymaker Trail incorporates everything from fast, flat lower sections to a steep, slalom-style descent. In between, you'll find several moderate climbs, rock bridges, windy berms and some fun rollers and jumps.

Bonus round: Test your skills at the adjacent BMX park before cruising into town for a cool one at Bonfire Brewing.
