Old Man Winter Rally

Old Man Winter Rally - Bike and Run

Sunday, February 4, 2024 


The Old Man Winter Rally returns again this year for the 10th year. Based in Bohn Park, the running and cycling events will leave between 9:30 am and 12:00 pm with riders and runners returning as well.

As part of their special event permit, 2nd Ave will be closed to vehicles on Sunday, February 4 from 9 am - 5 pm from Park St to the Bohn Park entrance and Recycling Center entrance. Drivers will need to detour around via US-36 and to McConnell and 2nd Ave, to bypass the temporary closure. The closure will be signed and staffed by the Boulder County Sheriff's Office. All fees for the Sheriff services are paid by the event organization. There will be intermittent short closures along 2nd Ave towards McConnell when the bicycle riders start. These short closures will be for 15 minutes. 

If you are interested in volunteering, sign up today. All volunteers will receive a hot meal, Old Man Winter swag, and $20/hr donated to their non-profit partners.
