Testimonials

Day of the Tread has been our favorite event of the year for more than a decade. The courses are fun and safe and the all the Halloween themed activities make Day of the Tread the most fun event we've ever participated in. The Day of the Tread organizers have gone out of their way to support our group participation and accommodated our children with special needs in the best possible way! THANK YOU DAY OF THE TREAD and we will see you in October!

—Zia Freewheelers Adaptive Cycling Team

“My first time participating in Day of the Tread. My first time in the Land of Enchantment. It could not have been more memorable, the people, the event, the fun, the energy, the breathtaking backdrops of the New Mexico landscape, the very worthy and honorable cause. I’ll definitely give it a 10, a 12 if at all possible!”

—Charlie Wilson, Rockledge, Florida

Fun for all ages and abilities!

As the weather warms up, this is the perfect time to start getting prepared for the Day of the Tread. Try steady hill climb workouts as part of your training routine - you'll need that stamina for many of this year's routes.

Gravel ride training reminder! Get in a few off-road rides before Day of the Tread to get comfortable with gravel paths. The more prepared you are, the more fun you’ll have on the big day! Who’s been training hard?
