Arizona Brevets and Long Distance Cycling (original) (raw)

Description:

We will continue our visits to Arizona Observatories with a weekend of climbing in southern AZ. Our last events were in Flagstaff and visited the Lowell Observatory telescopes. These events will traverse the iconic climbs to the Kitt Peak Observatory and to the ski resort on Mt Lemmon. In addition to Mt Lemmon on Sunday, the route will take us to the rarely seen (on bicycle) Sabino Canyon. Sabino is nearly always closed to bicycles, but we will work it into our route on this Sunday. Sunday will also loop in the sonoran desert gem of Saguaro National Park.

How often do you get to climb Kitt Peak, Gates Pass, Sabino Canyon and Mt Lemmon -- in the same weekend?!?! Come join us for one, or both. It will be a memorable weekend!
