Weekend Wheels: CU Invitational, Live Music, and Road Safety in Boulder
Published 3 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Saturday, January 24th. Kick off your weekend with some high-energy action right here in town, as the Colorado Invitational track and field meet at the Ford Performance Facility roars into its second day. Yesterday, CU Buffs throwers stole the show—Amanda Opp smashed a season-best 17.56 meters in the weight throw, ranking her 11th in the Big 12, while Alaina Fantaski nailed a personal best of 8.13 meters in shot put, and Lucas Williams topped 18 meters to keep the momentum rolling. Today starting at 11 a.m., watch Buffs stars like Antonio Votour in the 60-meter hurdles, Georgia Bell in the mile, and relay teams battle it out, with Colorado State Rams and Colorado College Tigers joining the fray for sprints, distances, and more. Its the kind of local showdown that fires up our athletic spirit and draws crowds to cheer on homegrown talent pushing limits.
If youre into live music tonight, head to the Fox Theatre at 8 p.m. for Diva Cup rocking the stage with Rosebay and Dry Ice—a promoted gig thats perfect for shaking off the winter chill with indie vibes and Boulder energy. Or catch Lines at the Dairy Arts Center, a powerful performance blending Irish and Lebanese traditions through music, dance, video, and poetry by Khalil Gibran. It dives into resilience amid displacement, reminding us how art adapts and unites us in tough times—shows run through tonight, offering a thoughtful escape that sparks real conversations.
On a serious note, Colorados 2025 traffic data dropped this week, showing 701 deaths statewide, up slightly from last year, with pedestrian and bike fatalities rising amid warmer late-year weather. Boulders count held steady at 19, down 17 percent, thanks to ongoing infrastructure pushes like better bike lanes and crosswalks under Senate Bill 25-030. It hits home—every crash affects our trails, commutes, and families—so lets prioritize sober driving, hands-free phones, and vigilance to keep our roads safer in 2026.
Basketball fans, catch the CU Buffs mens team hosting UCF this afternoon in Big 12 play at the CU Events Center, with womens hoops facing Oklahoma State tomorrow. Whether youre trackside, stage-front, or sticking to snowy paths, Boulders buzzing with ways to connect and stay active. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
