Gravel, beer & friends: FoCo Fondo p/b Fat Tire 2024 Course Preview

With five distances on tap, FoCo Fondo presented by Fat Tire has a gravel event for everyone in Fort Collins, Colorado, from a 12-mile kids route up to the 118-mile race with $9,000 up for grabs. Whitney and Zack Allison have hosted FoCo Fondo since 2016, and they give me a tour of not only the roads, but some of the local businesses that help the northern Colorado town feel even more like home for cyclists.
