Even though its tarred now, it's only open to dirt orientated bikes in competition.
Mate I was actually just having a look at the pikes peak site and it seems there are a lot of bikes competing. Ranging from r1s zrx's to electric bikes, quads and sidecars.
Here's the competitor listing if you'd like to have a further look. I think it would be an interesting watch to see how the riders cope on bigger bikes up in the thinner air.
