WORK SESSION ITEM: 2014 Pro Challenge Bike Race Process and Initial Route Discussion, Cindy
Houben, Nancy Lesley. Cindy gave an overview of the meeting, introducing Nancy Lesley from the City of
Aspen and Michael Kramer from Pitkin County Community Development. The purpose of the meeting is to
discuss the proposed routes, provide an overview of the special events permit process for the bike race, and
identify trigger points, meaning event parameters that would trigger coming back to the Board. Cindy provided
an overview of the review process for the race. Discussion ensued. Nancy Lesley was invited to present the
proposed routes. The City has elected to propose the same first day start route as last year, with exception of
adding a section on the final lap to increase the hill climb. George asked if the hill climb component could be
accommodated at the top of Snowmass. The City of Aspen will follow up.
