The 2010 Levi Leipheimer's King Ridge GranFondo holds all the promise of its inaugural running, with a renewed focus on delivering more fun and festivities along the way. A GranFondo is a celebrated tradition in Italian cycling culture. It is a long distance, mass-participation cycling event – not a race – that welcomes professional, amateur, and recreational cyclists of all abilities. While not strictly competitive, these rides are timed to ensure cyclists complete the entire course and provide some scoring for quick completion of unique sections of the route. We offer three fully-supported routes to suit a wide range of riding levels, from occasional riders to seasoned racers. |
