You already know what we’re going to say right, come ready for adventure. So here’s a few things that could potentially make Gran Fondo Leavenworth even more adventurous than it already is. Snow. Big surprise, but there’s still patches of snow atop the first climb. There may or may not be a short hike-a-bike similar to a few years ago, should be fairly minimal with that run of warm weather we just had. Rain. Forecast is calling for chances of rain on and off all week. Some rain would be nice, as things are already super dry. A lot of rain turns Swakane into a gumbo mess, to which we reroute. Parking. The Peshastin/Dryden Elementary School where we stage out of is under construction, and we only have about half the parking we usually have. Please see parking map for additional parking options. Otherwise everything is awesome, and shaping up to be epic!
GFL; Is there a pre-race packet pick up?
Yes, you’ll be receiving an email with all of the need to know info.
I hope the rain is not too bad in the coming days so we can go up Swakane again!
Ha, glutton for punishment! Yeah, we’re definitely hoping for Swakane too, but not sure, sounds like some pretty nasty weather coming Thurs and Fri.
Is the Grande Plan C course still half gravel?
It will be very close to the originally planned course with approx 34 of the 80 miles being gravel.
Do you have a course map for the Medio.
