Carpooling
We've partnered with Treadshare to help you find others to carpool to the race with!
TreadShare is a free local carpooling app meant to decrease traffic and pollution for a better Colorado. The app links drivers and riders so they can share rides and their associated costs, while meeting like-minded Coloradans. Post a drive anywhere in Colorado or book a ride in just a few clicks!
Carpooling with TreadShare is a cost-sharing arrangement organized through the app, and not a commercial activity for drivers.
