Well, we're off! It's going to be exciting, that's for sure. We're lookin' at about 5 hours "in the saddle" today.
June 22, 2008
67 miles
Durango to Ouray.
A good way to start! We ride along the infamous route of “The Iron Horse Bicycle Classic - Race the Train” and the famous Million Dollar Highway. Our bikes will cross over three exhilarating passes: Coal Bank Pass at 10,600’, Molas Divide at 10,910’ and the awesome Red Mountain Pass, topping out at over 11,000’. The day winds down with a spectacular decent into Ouray. In town enjoy the hot springs, gaze up the canyon walls, or just rest after a tough day in the saddle.
