Pikes Peak postponed due to coronavirus

If the climb of Pikes Peak is traditionally contested at the end of June, the organizers of the Colorado race had to postpone the holding of the 98th edition by two months due to the coronavirus epidemic.

“Being aware of the situation linked to the coronavirus, our members of the management committee have decided to postpone the Race to the Clouds until August 30, said Tom Osborne, CEO of Pikes Peak. While Americans are understanding of these difficult times, there are many factors that may prompt the postponement or cancellation of sporting events, including Pikes Peak. »

The Fan Fest which attracts more than 30 spectators to Colorado Springs each year will be postponed to Friday, August 000.
