Our weather report says it’s going to be an awesome day to ride Saturday, October 24th, so If you want to get to the Velo Swap on your bike here’s a couple of routes you might consider.

Jump on the South Platte river trail: at around 2 miles North of Confluence of Cherry Creek and South Platte, and just North of a steep ramp up to 38th Street, you will see a sign on the East side of the river near the Pepsi building, that says “Globeville Landing Park”.  Take the concrete path from the river to Arkins Ct. and turn left in front of the Pepsi building – sign on building says “Rocky Mountain Refurb” between Pepsi logos.  You will soon see the Coliseum; follow the road you are on around the Coliseum parking lot to 44th Ave at McFarland.

Turn left on 44th in front of the Coliseum and go under I-70 to the National Western Complex. Look for BikeDenver bike parking as you approach the National Western building.

If you are riding from the South East, check out the map included here to find your way to 35th Avenue. Take 35th Ave. to Steele St. and go North to 44th Ave.  Turn left, West, on 44th Ave. and find Clayton to go North under I-70 to 47th Ave.  Turn West on 47th and looking for a jog at York, make your way over to Franklin or Humboldt  on 47th and find a way through event traffic control to the bike parking on the I-70 side of the exhibition hall where the Velo will rock for the rest of the day.  We’ll park trailers and everything bicycle so save the hassle of getting a car in the area and RIDE!

Doors open at 9am, but lines form early.  Look for the BikeDenver booth just inside the South East door – we’ll have free Starbucks coffee, and we’ll store your shopping items or other stuff at our indoor bag check.  Support BikeDenver by making a donation at bike or bag parking, or become a member at your VELO special rate of $25.  See you there!!
