    Default Chinook Gran Fondo - June 15

    Anyone signed up for this?
    https://platinumracing.ca/chinook-gr...-race-details/

    Bow cycle's got a $50 off the registration code which makes it decent value: https://www.facebook.com/BowCycleSpo...61693029210162

    Course looks decent though I wish they'd used Plummers road instead of Hwy 549. I'm tempted!

    Twice a week, yes
    Gran Fondos are always around the $200 mark, unfortunately. Wish MEC would run their spring event instead.

    I might do the 55k only if I am alone or if my friend comes, might as well do the 100k. I can’t do the 160k yet haha.

    I know these roads too and done them a few times last year. Haven’t been there though this year. Would be fun!

    I totally forgot that this is the same weekend as Ghost of the Gravel. Totally doing GOTG instead - 110km of gravelly goodness (and it's an actual race and it's cheaper). Maybe I should make a separate thread for that...

    Yes. GOTG would be for sure nice! Hope to do it next year! Still thinking to do the Chinook classic Piccolo one then MS ride for me the weekend after; the Badlands Fondo I think is the same weekend as the MS Ride. It's 2 weekends of good riding!
