Be Green….. Being green is more important than ever in our ever growing/shrinking world. The Colorado Cycling Festival will always strive to keep our community as sustainable as possible, Supporting earth friendly companies through free booths for all environmental, sustainable product companies, world friendly education programs, non-profits and all alternative energies companies. The CCF goal is to leave the smallest foot print on our community possible while helping others think about global consciousness in saving our planet.

We are asking that you help by keeping your foot print as small as possible as well. CCF is Striving for zero refuge and alternative purchasing habits and transportation for running the festival. You can: Car pooling to events, using hybrid cars, using environmentally friendly products not only at our festival, but in everyday life. We will do our best to keep the festival and all the refuge in recycling, or in bio product lines as much as possible. We have also made it easy to use your bike while being here for general transportation. Each rider packet will have a city bike map compliments of the City of Fort Collins Bike Transportation division
