Royal Gorge 50 Mile Bike Ride Challenge

By Leave a Comment

The jewel of the Royal Gorge Region’s trail system – the Royal Gorge Trails – is a stunning system of singletrack trail. Trails range from green to black and flowy to technical. While the Royal 50 / Gorgeous 25 Mountain Bike Races will not be held in-person this year, you can now challenge yourself to complete 50 or 25 miles on this incredible terrain.

With a significant amount of elevation gain, you’ll have the opportunity to climb through the hills surrounding the north rim of the famed Royal Gorge over the Arkansas River. Catch views (and your breath) along 20 available miles of unique singletrack. Create your own route, ride laps on your favorite trails, or check out royal50.com for suggested routes and more details about the challenges in general!

October is Arts Month in the Pikes Peak Region

By Leave a Comment

Orchestrated annually by the Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region, Arts Month elevates the visibility of arts and culture across El Paso and Teller Counties by showcasing local talent, providing opportunities for arts advocacy, supporting cross-sector collaborations, and creating new avenues for arts engagement and cultural enrichment.

Working in close collaboration with individual artists, arts organizations, and community partners from across our region, existing cultural offerings are amplified with special Arts Month programming to create an October calendar that’s rich with amazing local art to see, hear, taste and experience!

Although the local Arts Month celebration is embraced with equal energy and excitement during all thirty-one days of October, for planning and promotional purposes, the month is divided into four discipline-specific theme weeks:

Targeted marketing, a diverse offering of local events and activities, and special Arts Month programming curated by the Cultural Office and partners, are all aligned around these four theme weeks to help sustain enthusiasm, and to generate robust community engagement throughout the entire month. Regardless of what theme week it is, remember that the call to action during Arts Month is to “have at least one new cultural experience [virtual or in-person] with family or friends this October!”

Check out the first episode of Peak Radar Live’s Arts month series, “Episode 1: Arts Month Overview”:

New Dine-In Movie Theater Now Open in Colorado Springs

By Leave a Comment

Dine on gourmet eats while reclining back and enjoying a movie at the brand-new RoadHouse Cinemas!

Arizona-based RoadHouse Cinemas has brought its dining and movie experience to Colorado Springs – RoadHouse Cinemas, located at 3030 N. Nevada Avenue in the old Kmart building is now open!

While sitting back and relaxing into comfy recliners, choose from a menu created by award-winning chefs and sip on a cocktail, wine, or beer from an extensive drink menu. No need to get up to the concession stand—everything is brought to you with full service! (You can also enjoy a meal in a separate seating area outside the auditorium.)

The first movies arriving at RoadHouse Cinemas in Colorado Springs are Unhinged, The New Mutants, Bill & Ted Face the Music, Black Panther – and more.  See the full list here.

The theater was initially set to open at the beginning of the summer, but the onset of the pandemic resulted in delayed blockbuster releases, affecting movie theater operations. To comply with state orders, RoadHouse is open at 50 percent capacity and enforcing safety measures, including mandatory face coverings, blocked seating, and advanced ticket reservations.

Though the theater doesn’t have its full food menu just yet, moviegoers can still enjoy burgers, quesadillas, gelato, popcorn (of course), and a few other items. The full bar is available to all guests.

Buy a “Roadie Tee” online or at the theater’s box office, and you’ll get free popcorn every time you wear it to RoadHouse! You can also purchase a Roadie beer or wine glass and get half-price each time you use it at the theater.

The Colorado Springs location will have an additional entertainment venue called the Rail Yard. It will have bowling, ping pong, cornhole, and arcade games available. This is the company’s third location and the first outside of Arizona.

Reserve tickets and learn more here.

Movie theaters are finally reopening with safety precautions! What movie are you excited to see on the big screen? Leave a comment below.
