Street Atlas Maps Day 2

Day two has three different ways the riders can navigate the course.

The standard route is shown below.

If a rider wishes to avoid the steep climb to the Gorge, but still wishes to bike 150 miles then they can take the Alternate Route below. In that case, they finish at Rudd Park in Canon city.

Century riders (100 miles per day) can start out with the alternate route, then add the Royal Gorge loop at the end and they have their full quote of miles.

The alternate route starts at Colorado College and goes out on this east Loop. Once they hit Rest Stop 11, they rejoin the standard route above.
