THE GOLDEN GIDDYUP – A CLOSING CHAPTER

The Golden Giddyup was a local non-profit focused on engaging mountain bikers in trail stewardship and improving the trails for all visitors. Each year, the Giddyup managed hundreds of volunteers and contributed over 3,500 hours to Jeffco Open Space trails and the City of Golden’s Bike Park. Each stewardship season culminated with the best damn mountain bike race and community event on the front range. The proceeds generated by the nearly 500 racers and our generous sponsors went back to supporting the Giddyup Trail Team and our stewardship efforts on the trail.

SHAPE WHAT YOU SHRED

The Giddyup Trail Team is the trail stewardship component of the Giddyup. With several thousand hours put in on our trails in the past few years, our volunteer efforts help maintain and improve the trails in these parks, with a special eye on enhancing the experience for all visitors. While improving our trails, our volunteers also improve relationships with Jeffco staff as well as other park visitors, representing mountain bikers as stewards of the trails and locally engaged citizens. To us, participating in your community to Move Bikes Forward, whether it be on the trails, with your voice, or with your vote, is what we mean by #shapewhatyoushred.
