Strava SegmentsRoute Description
We begin just like the 2022 Gran Fondo route: in downtown Watopia, heading around the Volcano then out past the Spruce Goose and up the beginning of the Epic KOM Reverse before cutting across via the cliffside KOM cutoff road.
Then we head up through the redwoods to Fuego Flats Reverse, circling back to Fuego Flats forward. Now the route deviates from the Gran Fondo because we turn right into Titans Grove, hitting our first KOM of the day: Titans Grove Forward.
After the Titans Grove rollercoaster we make our way back through downtown Watopia and over the Esses to the Sprint Reverse and over the Hilly KOM Reverse. Then it’s back to Fuego Flats Forward for more flat, fast desert.
Rest those legs – your final challenge awaits after you descend through the redwoods from Fuego Flats. It’s time to take on the Epic KOM. You’ve got this!
Hi Eric, as always the site rocks but a quick question on the Fondo routes. What/when are the events for the rides? Are these separate from the TDZ?
Never mind, I am an idiot and just didn’t read the lead in to the article…as with the lead-ins for the routes in Zwift I zone out and don’t pay attention…All apologies
This is going to be a fun route. Is there any way to take the Strava segment and import the gpx file into BestBikeSplit to estimate time?/
