The Route
Built for a range of riders, the route offers a meaningful challenge with full support and SoCal scenery along the way. Choose your experience: ride all three days, take a day at Basecamp, or join as a two-day rider.
Ride out times each day will begin between 6:00–6:30 AM, and the routes will close between 3:00–6:00 PM dependent on the length of the course.
