Volunteers will meet the train in Silverton and direct you to ground transportation for a short trip to Memorial Park – The Iron Horse Bicycle Classic finish line – where:
A box lunch will be served (Meat or Vegetarian option available).
A ceremony honoring service will be held.
Following the ceremony, return transport will bring you back to Durango.
Inclement Weather Note: Our event will proceed regardless of weather conditions. While we hope it's sunny and warm, be prepared for rapidly changing and cold weather conditions in Silverton.
