Enchanted Circle - August 9
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sounds like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest.

Tour of the Moon - Sept. 13
Tour of the Moon was made famous in the 1980’s Coors Classic and later in the cycling movie American Flyers. Its legacy continues as one of the premier road cycling events in the western United States, which showcases the Colorado National Monument and its towering monoliths, sheer-walled red rock canyons, and panoramic views.
Registration is capped at 2,200 participants so be sure to sign up early. A portion of registration fees support One Riverfront and Bicycle Colorado.

Tour de Vineyards - Sept. 20
Celebrate the beginnings of fall with a scenic tour of Colorado Wine Country on September 21. Choose between a leisurely 23-mile route along the Palisade Fruit & Wine Byway or the more challenging 58-mile course that adds on a loop up and over Reeder Mesa.
Both routes showcase the splendor of the Grand Valley and the beauty of the Western Slope. Chock-full of wineries, vineyards, orchards and mesas, our 31st annual tour has a little something for everyone. After a good ride, enjoy a hearty meal right at the finish line in downtown Palisade and then head over to the Colorado Mountain Winefest (you will need a separate ticket), held just a few blocks away at Riverbend Park.
