Grand Fundo
In the cycling world, a gran fondo is a massive group ride/race, which can attract riders numbering in the thousands, encompassing all ability levels. It is not surprising to see tourist riders alongside local and international professionals at the world’s various gran fondo events. We have titled this ride a Grand Fundo, because it will be grand and more fun than any gran fondo! The Fundo is 64 miles and the course includes approximately 20 miles of dirt roads. No rider will be left behind and we will have an ice cream truck rest stop at mile 32, lots of support riders and a follow car with wheels. Immediately after the Fundo, we’ll retire for music, a bonfire and a pig roast which we hope you will stay to enjoy with us. The 2010 Grand Fundo will be the first of many events that will support J.A.M and it’s mission. Come join us on July 17th 2010! Pre-Registration : www.tinyurl.com/grandfundo2010
