Wildflower Three-Quarter Century Route

This year's ride features the lovely climb up Huer Huero, followed by the dashing descent on Parkhill. Then you'll ride to Shell Creek over the rolling hills of Highway 58. The rest of the ride is with those doing the half-century route.

Shell Creek's wildflowers abound as you follow the road on a gradual descent toward the lunch stop in Shandon.

After lunch, you face your toughest challenge as you do the long (1.5% to 2.5%) ascent on highway 41 to the next water stop. Shortly after, you will reach the top of the hills, have wide-open views before you descend and pass the horse ranches on your return to Creston.

When you return to the BBQ, you will have added about 4,000-feet of climbing to your credits!
