Black Bear Gran Fondo

  • 07/13/2019

What is the Black Bear Gran Fondo? It’s a race, it’s a ride,  it’s an event for cyclists of all abilities and it’s a celebration at the finish line! Choose one of three chip-timed loops. Challenging elevations, rolling hills and flats on all three routes. Self-organized start based on riding speed and training program.  Timing starts when you roll across the starting line. Bring a friend or bring an entire team!  Here are some of the things you can expect with your registration:
