UTAH-CACHE GRAN FONDO
UTAH’S LARGEST GRAN FONDO & FUN RIDE FOR ALL
2024 NUTRITION AND ENDURANCE PRODUCT SUPPLIER AND EVENT SPONSOR
As always this was another great ride. This was my 4th year and every time it’s been a great experience. With everything going on this year I thought about canceling but I’m glad I didn’t. Thanks again for putting all this together and making this such a great event.
Fun and challenging distances for ANY CYCLIST.
You Choose: Ride 35, 50, 75, and 100-mile or Race 75-miles.
We are excited to get back to our roots of hosting Utah’s biggest Gran Fondo event, with distances and courses for everyone. We are also proud to again for the 5th-year be an official Gran Fondo National Series points event which also provides riders an opportunity to qualify for the USA Cycling Gran Fondo National Championships.
A true Gran Fondo format, immediately after our racers leave the start line area on the 75-mile course, all distances will be open to our recreational cyclists on our 35, 50, 75 and 100 mile courses throughout our spectacular mountain valley. All routes, with the exception of our Piccolo 35-mile course, offer a slight hill challenge followed my mostly flat sections on low-traffic roads.
All distances offer well-stocked support stations with real food from Lee’s Marketplace, Newton Market, Woodwards Country Store, and Thomas Market. Our nutrition and hydration sponsor, Hammer Nutrition will provide Hammer Gels, electrolytes, and Heed supplements at all rest stops. For the past 13 years Pepsi provides all the Pepsi products you can drink, including a fully-stocked Pepsi trailer at the finish line. We offer a light breakfast at the start-line, and a unique rider lunch where you chose your preference from one of 3 different local restaurants. Over 40 local and statewide sponsors also provide over $8000 worth of rider prizes and rider gifts, including Campchef stoves and outdoor cooking items, cycling items from Al’s Sporting Goods, Joyride Bikes & The Sportsman. Also high-end pillows from Malouf Sleep, and ARS always provides FatBoy ice cream sandwiches as you cross the finish.
We are also a USACycling sanctioned event, and provide insurance on all our registered riders.
Today for the first time I made it up the hill on the 50 mile to get to the second stop in Newton. I literally was crying. I still am while I’m sitting here. I never could have done this without the opportunity for me to tackle the impossible. Thank you!
35, 50, 75 and 100-mile courses
Compete to the level you want, and the distance you prefer to ride.
The Cache Gran Fondo offers 4 different distances, from a mostly-flat 35-mile course to a tough and challenging 100+ Century that tests even the most-experienced cyclists. Each is fully supported with aid stations and roving radio crews and law enforcement professionals.
The start and finish are easy to find, park, and relax before and after the event. And even though you are not racing, you still are eligible for hundreds of prizes, drawn randomly throughout the day.

Congrats on another spectacular year. I rode the 76 and the new course through Preston was fabulous. All stations were very well-stocked. A near perfect day although you could have provided a bit more cloud cover like last year, ha. We were done by 11:30 so not bad at all. Well done.
