The Course
All cyclists will start and finish at the Grand Junction Convention Center in downtown Grand Junction. The ride will begin with a spectacular trek through the Colorado National Monument. After exiting the Monument, riders may elect to tackle a metric century through the beautiful farm country and surrounding areas of Fruita, or hang a right and wind their way back to downtown by way of quaint country roads and a jaunt through the Redlands.
