Experience the rich history and high-desert beauty of Southwest Colorado at the Cortez Ruins Ramble, a fully supported e-bike adventure set against one of the most culturally significant landscapes in the country.

This ride takes you through the scenic countryside surrounding Cortez, where sweeping mesas, open skies, and ancient landscapes tell stories thousands of years old. With smooth stretches of road and unforgettable views in every direction, the Ruins Ramble is designed to be both inspiring and approachable. E-bikes make the miles enjoyable, allowing riders of all levels to focus on the scenery, the history, and the shared experience.

You'll pedal through terrain shaped by time, near archaeological treasures, dramatic red rock backdrops, and the wide-open spaces that define the Four Corners region. It's not a race; it's a ride that connects community, culture, and Colorado adventure.

After crossing the finish, stick around and celebrate at the Cortez October Festival. Enjoy local food, music, and small-town festival energy the perfect way to wrap up a memorable day on two wheels.

Ride the history. Ramble the mesas. Celebrate in Cortez.
