2024 Breck Epic: The Tickle and The Slap

The 2024 Breck Epic, which took place last month, is a multi-day race event comprised of six epic backcountry loops between 35 and 50 miles long. Beginning and ending in Breckenridge, CO, the event features a cloverleaf format, with each loop utilizing the sprawling trail networks of surrounding Summit and Park Counties.

Whether you’re a racer or just there for the experience, the Breck Epic delivers hypoxia, sore legs, and some of the best alpine singletrack you’ll ever ride!
