Cycling Route

Details

91.61 mi

December 19th 2021 - Brave New Wheel, 7am depart
Brief description - Be prepared for the shit. You should be dressed like Davey Crocket in the dead of winter while that bad ass mofo is running around trapping and what not. Wear your full furs, handwear, the works. Be ready to walk in snow over Pennock Pass (9k feet+) the pass is closed to cars for the last few miles up and 10 miles down to Pingree Park Road. Everyone that completes this route is a winner, you can only lose if you become incapacitated and need to call in assistance, don't be that person. Ride it how you want, some people stop for snacks and supplies at the Mishawaka, some people stop for beverages at swing station, it's your adventure. Absolutely zero services from Masonville to Mishawaka for food or water.
