Rollout: 8:00 am

Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/47330513

What: This four-part series is designed to prepare you for the Tushar Mountains and a hard day in the saddle. RDC will be offering nutrition tips, pacing strategies, bike skills, and more to ensure you are set to tackle Lifetimes Crusher in Tushar. If you’re looking to enhance your skills but don’t have an interest in racing, this series offers value to all.

For the last ride of the series, we will do a Crusher course simulation on our home roads. As always, this route allows for multiple bailout options pending your goals and legs on the day. The course will take you up to Gold Hill via Sunchine Canyon where we will briefly stop to refuel before continuing our climbing to Peak to Peak. From there we will flip it and head back to the base of Sunshine Canyon to do it another time. At the base, we will take a moment to regroup and asses fueling and hydration. Our second lap will end at the Gold Hill Store before we head back down the canyon again. From there, we have one more climb after crossing Wonderland Park connecting us to Lee Hill Drive. We will connect to Bow Mountain and descend all the back to Full Cycle.

Suggested Equipment:

• Bike computer for route upload

• Hydration pack (this is good to test out comfort and usability but necessary to the route)

• Minimum of 38c tires (Sunshine decent has plenty of washboards)

• 2 water bottles

• Fuel for 5+ hours if you are completing the entire route
