Penticton Day 1-3: Be ready

Two weeks tomorow is Day 1 of the Penticton Week of "Shut Up Legs". Below I listed rides for the first three days; each of them is linked to the Map My Ride route. Take a look at each ride, see where we’re riding and get familiar with the distances and area. Keep in mind the distances on the maps are conservative, so add 10-20km to each one to accommodate the kilometres it takes us to ride through Penticton. All rides start at the parking lot at Denny's, which is attached to the Sandman Hotel.

  

Day 1, Sunday, May 13, Start: 9 a.m.

• Long and short ride - Ironman Loop: 160km

Day 2, Monday, May 14, Start: 7 a.m.

• Long ride- Anarchist climb: 180km
• We turn around at the Sasquatch
• If you want to add another 40km, join the crew doing the Mt. Baldy loop until you hit gravel, return back down to Oliver and then head to Osoyoos for the Anarchist climb. 
• Long ride (gravel)- Mt Baldy loop: 180km
• There's about 30-35km of ascending or descending gravel

• There's potential for getting lost on this one, so know where you’re going. It’s one of the more fun rides of the week.   
• Feel free to start this ride later in the morning if you like.

Days 4-7 coming soon. Remember to confirm your accommodations and get out riding over the next two weeks.
