The 31st annual Ride for the Pass start is at the Winter Closure Gate on Highway 82. 

The Ride has three options: The first ends at ghost town of Independence ten miles from the start (climbing approximately 2,300 feet, ending at an elevation of about 10,800 feet). The second option ends at Weller Lake, which is just over two miles from the starting line and climbs 500 verticle feet, making this option more family-friendly. There is also an e-bike (pedal assist only) option. Join this "car free" ride to support the Independence Pass Foundation and ride this iconic Colorado road before it opens to vehicle traffic for the season.

A barbecue + raffle will follow the ride at the winter gate (weather permitting).

This fun and fast kids-only race is all about letting young riders, ages 5 to 17, shine as the stars of the show! The races will take place on the Minturn Mini Mile circuit. Riders race counter-clockwise. The distances vary from 2 to 6 miles, depending on the category.
