WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH

At the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, two women have set the standard on two wheels and four. Laura Hayes became the fastest woman in a car in 2024, clocking 10:20.487 in a Toyota GR Supra GT4, and returns this year aiming for more history. In 2019, Lucy Glöckner became the first woman under 10 minutes on a motorcycle with a 9:58.878 run, setting a new benchmark on the mountain.

The Pikes Peak Hill Climb Historical Association welcomes those who have an interest in motorsports. Whether it's meeting for the monthly lunch meeting, joining the group for our annual reunion, visiting museums, identifying photos, researching race-related inquiries, or working to maintain and preserve the history of this iconic race, there's something for everyone.
