Anybody raced Leadville?
Any tips on gaining an entry spot?
Is there a way for an entrant to “outright qualify” aside from having a Pro Card?
Thanks!
Besides a pro card I think the only way in is through the lottery.
Yes.
Sure…it’s a lottery, but it’s not a random lottery.
Pro Card does not get you a ticket to Leadville…I can guarantee you that. It’s not even a pro USA Cycling event. There are many of “big names” who are trying to nudge their way into the race. The great thing about Ken is that the more the push…the more he pushes back. A real cowboy.
You get into Leadville by doing favors…not asking for them.
PM if you want more details.
FWIW - Leadville isn’t for everyone and some people are trying to make it into something that it’s not. Ken won’t have any of that.
