Iron Horse Bicycle Classic from Durango to Silverton
May 23rd 2026 | 8:00 am | Durango & Silverton, COIron Horse Bicycle Classic from Durango to Silverton

Bikers will travel from Durango to Silverton in one day to race the Durango Silverton Narrowgauge Railroad. 

The most popular event in the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic, the McDonald’s Citizen Tour winds through 50 miles of Colorado’s finest scenery. Cyclists conquer two mountain passes higher than 10,000 feet on this point-to-point ride, along with more than 6,000 feet of vertical climb and two breathtaking descents.

Ride in the spirit of those first friends who challenged each other to beat the train. Line up in Durango at 6,512’, cross a finish line like no other in Silverton at 9,318’, and earn bragging rights forever—whether you aim to beat the train or just enjoy the ride.

The McDonald’s Citizen Tour is a non-timed, non-competitive event. Competitive riders can register for the Coca-Cola Road Race
