The race site is the Aurora Reservoir, located a short drive from Denver. Spectators arriving after the 7:30 a.m. start time will be charged a per vehicle entrance fee to the park. This fee will be waived on race day for athletes and spectators who arrive prior to the 7:30 a.m. start.. The most direct route is to take I-70 east from the Denver, and exit onto I-225. Exit I-225 at 6th Avenue and turn left (east). 6th Ave. eventually becomes Gun Club Rd.

Stay on this road as it continues past Buckley AFB. A short time later you will see signs for Quincy Ave and the Aurora Reservoir. Turn left on Quincy and right into the reservoir. A slightly longer alternate route will allow you to drive a portion of the bike course. From Denver, take I-70 east to Exit 295 (Watkins). Turn right (south) on Watkins Rd. and follow to Quincy. Turn right onto Quincy and you will see the reservoir entrance on your left in approximately 5 miles.
