Event details and schedule

Join us this year for the Big Bear Cycling Festival . . . a FULL WEEK OF FREE CYCLING ACTIVITIES leading up to Tour de Big Bear weekend. From the Big Bear Gran Fondo Mountain Bike event (July 30 - separate registratation required) to altitude training rides, bike biathlon, poker ride and post Tour de Big Bear recovery and time trial rides. Where else can you get a full week of organized riding for one entry! Watch the tourdebigbear.com and bigbearcyclingfestival.com websites for more details and the offical event schedule!

Check-in for Tour de Big Bear weekend will again be on Friday (Noon - 9:00PM) at our host hotel, Robinhood Resort, and New Belgium Brewing will have a Fat Tire Beer Garden Friday and Saturday! Have a few beers and wander around the Big Bear Cycling Expo on Friday afternoon/evening and all day on Saturday and see numerous cycling releated vendors and bike companies.

Specific ride related schedules/times and information will be distributed, via email and on the website, to all registered participants about 10 days prior to the event.

The Village at Big Bear Lake - When preparing to select your ride, remember you will be riding at between 7,000 – 8,500 feet of elevation! “The air is much thinner up here” is often heard by our visitors just walking around town! Avoid heatstroke, sunstroke, dehydration and even cardiac arrest by letting your body acclimate to the high elevation and do not push yourself too hard! A “normal ride distance” for you at sea level will be close to the equivalent of double that same distance at our high altitude and dry desert climate!! Those interested in riding THE CLIMB, but have not yet done so,we suggest you consider testing your skills first on the 70 mile stage to see how your body and fitness react. The Climb is very difficult century with over 25 miles of climbing at or above 7000’. Unless you are an extremely experienced century rider, this ride is NOT for you!
