    Anything’s possible!

    Anything’s possible when the New Belgium Urban Assault Ride comes to town. Participants may find themselves attempting the infamous keg walk, careening down an inflatable slip ‘n slide, or wading through a foam pit at this funky bike scavenger hunt that sends two-person teams riding to checkpoints around town to complete crazy obstacle courses at each stop. The first team to complete the challenges and cross the finish line wins a pair of limited edition cruiser bikes. The ride is followed by a huge after party with New Belgium’s Fat Tire beer, live music, and plenty of two-wheeled shenanigans. Find out more at www.urbanassultride.com
