Crested Butte, Colorado, home of the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, has played a role in mountain bike for over three decades. It hosts the world's oldest mountain bike festival according to the North Denver News, set to take place as the 27th Annual Fat Tire Bike Week June 25-30.

The festival includes the seventh annual Wildflower Rush Mountain States Cup Race June 23-24, and is also held in conjunction with the Law Enforcement Bicycle Association Conference (June 25 – 28), followed by the Colorado Mountain Biking Summit (June 28 – 29). The Bridges of the Butte 24-Hour Townie Tour finishes off the event June 29-30 (note: costumes are encouraged at the latter event).
