A report released today says this summer’s USA Pro Cycling Challenge had an $83.5 million impact in Colorado during the seven-day August event.

The USA Pro Cycling Challenge ended in Denver on Sunday. American Levi Leipheimer took the title. The race was the first time Colorado’s hosted a premier tournament since the Coors Classic was shuttered more than two decades ago. Colorado Public Radio’s Ben Markus was at the finish and has this report.

Thousands of fans are still flocking to get a glimpse of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge, as the riders make their way through the northern and central mountains.  But traffic delays and other hazards are still a concern for this weekend.
