Colorado’s Largest Bike Expo will Serve as a Fundraiser for Bicycle Colorado
DENVER, Colorado (October 30, 2024) – VeloSwap, the ultimate end-of-season event for cycling enthusiasts, is set to return to Denver, Colorado, on November 2 at the National Western Complex. Presented by Bicycle Colorado, this one-day event will offer a broad range of products, from bikes and accessories to clothing and gear, featuring over 200 local and national vendors.
Cyclists and families alike are invited to enjoy an exciting lineup of activities, including prize giveaways, bike demos, a kids’ bike rodeo, and guest speakers. The event supports Bicycle Colorado’s mission, with proceeds from ticket sales, exhibitor fees, merchandise sales, and sponsorships directly benefiting the organization’s work to promote safe cycling across Colorado.
Attendees can take advantage of special pricing on excess inventory from retailers, unique buys from manufacturers, and a diverse selection from individual swappers. Highlighted vendors include Mike’s Bikes, Save Our Soles, Canfield Bikes, Feedback Sports, EF Educational Tours, Giant Bicycles, HopeCycle, Lucky Bikes, and more, creating the largest single-day bike sale of the year.
This year marks VeloSwap’s 32nd anniversary and its first under the ownership of Bicycle Colorado. In 2023, Outside Interactive, Inc., a global leader in active lifestyle content and events, transferred ownership of VeloSwap to Bicycle Colorado to ensure this beloved event continues its legacy in supporting Colorado’s cycling community.
Bicycle Colorado’s Executive Director, Pete Piccolo, stated, “VeloSwap presents a significant opportunity for us to support Colorado’s bicycling community and advance our advocacy work. We are excited to build on the strong brand of VeloSwap, bringing the event back to Colorado to inspire bicyclists and drive policy changes that make biking safer for all.”
