8 days to go until the Summer Grand Traverse!

This quiet soccer field in downtown Crested Butte is going to be center stage for the Run start and the Bike finish. Come join the party if you're in town. Vibes will be high!

Irwin Brewing Company will be there with their b**r truck, evileye.eyewear will be showing off their stylish shades, and of course the racers will be bringing the heat!

We're looking for a few more volunteers to Course Marshal in town on Sunday for the bike finish. To sign up look for the Volunteer link on the GT race pages. Let your non-racing friends know!
