From the Organizer
This is a sensational course. Phenomenal views, and an overall super challenging but brutally fun course - roads are approx. 80% Gravel and Dirt, 20% paved or bike paths.
Starting at Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort, the course goes directly into the Garden of the Gods. The short course takes one loop around the Garden, then up Rampart Range Road to top of Rampart Range lookout, and turns around to ride back down to the Lodge. The Long Course keeps going past the turnaround, and has 13 miles of forest road, jeep trail and single track. The Long Course is beautiful but challenging, you must have decent gravel bike handling skills to make it through.
