does anyone know the actual distance we will be riding?


When we signed up to do the ride we were told it would be close to 200k.  At orientation we heard closer to 300.  Does anyone know how far it really is and how long for each day?

Hello Renee, I think the ride will be closer to the 200kms.  When we didn't know the start we used Spruce Meadows as the starting point and it was coming in at around 177kms, now with it starting at the Deerfoot Casino this should bring it close to the 200 mark.   If you click on the link below it shows most of the route with elevation changes.

Enjoy

I thing the 300k was if you took part in the "Afternoon Afterburn" additional loop. The recent note put out about it puts that extra bit between 50 and 70 km.
