About

Since 1991, the Cherry Creek Time Trial Series has been a spring rite of passage — Wednesday evenings at Cherry Creek State Park, where riders gather to test themselves against Colorado’s mercurial weather and a deceptively beautiful course.

The Cherry Creek Time Trial Series is a great way to get back into time trial racing shape. Whether you’re returning to the discipline after time away or building toward a bigger goal, the weekly format gives you a consistent opportunity to measure your progress. There’s nothing better than seeing your time improve week after week as your fitness and pacing come back around.

The series is also an excellent fit for triathletes. Time trial racing builds the same discipline, efficiency, and sustained effort that triathlon demands, making it a smart and effective way to train in a race setting. With regular events and clear feedback on performance, Cherry Creek offers a motivating environment for athletes who want to get faster and stronger.

We’re celebrating the 36th anniversary of the KHMTT — over three and a half decades of grit, laughter, flat tires, and windy triumphs. And every year, it still feels like the place to be when spring returns.

What makes the Cherry Creek Time Trial Series unforgettable isn’t just the competition; it’s the setting. The course starts at the shoulder of Cherry Creek Reservoir, threads through serene wetlands, and dances across the trickling creeks that feed the reservoir. It’s scenic enough to make you forget you’re racing — until the headwind reminds you otherwise. That unpredictability, this is Colorado after all, is exactly what gives the series its character: beautiful, tactical, and always a little challenging.

Beyond the racing itself, the series also supports the broader cycling community. A portion of the proceeds is donated to nonprofit organizations that promote bicycle racing and advocate for safe roads and stronger laws for cyclists, including Bicycle Colorado. This community-minded mission adds even more value to the event, making the Cherry Creek Time Trial Series not just a race, but a contribution to the future of cycling.
