Rocky Mountain Road Cup

 

The KHMTT series is now part of the Rocky Mountain Road Cup competition.

The Rocky Mountain Road Cup is a season-long points competition for individuals and teams that consists of road racing, time trials, criteriums and hill climbs held throughout Colorado in the the spring and summer. These races bring the joy, challenge and excitement of road events to riders of all ages and abilities.

  • Your overall standings in your category during the series will be counted in the Road Cup.
  • The KHMTT age categories for the master categories are organized in five-year intervals, while the Rocky Mountain Road Cup utilizes ten-year intervals.
  • To align with the cup categories, some KHMTT categories will be merged to conform to the Rocky Mountain Road Cup categories.
  • If a rider races twice in two separate categories, and both categories are merged into the same cup category, the race with the highest number of points will be the race that is taken into consideration for the Rocky Mountain Road Cup.

The following table is the translation between the KHMTT categories and the Rocky Mountain Road Cup categories.
