Reg should open Thursday June 17 or Friday June 18.

 Course: Nearly the same as 2001-14 and 1990-98, and exactly the same as 2019. One 60-mile nearly complete loop, with one major climb (Leesville Grade, 1,500’) and sev-eral smaller ones. There’s also a fast steep descent off Grapevine Pass. Narrow roads, with 8 total miles of rideable gravel, in three sections, the first two mostly flat (on Freshwater and King Roads) and the third after Leesville, including a down-hill stretch. On short construction set before Lodoga with a temporary bridge fol-lowed by potholes. The pavement sections are excellent to fair, including 12 miles – the entire length of Leesville Road brand new and smooooooth. But tighten all your bolts (including brakes, brake hoods, seat bolts and stem bolts)! Route: B and 7th streets in Williams, to a left on Freshwater, the same as the past five years. Then continuing on Freshwater to its end (first gravel stretch). Left on Manor and right on King (second gravel stretch after hump over the canal), right on Leesville, begin pavement again. West over the grade to go north on Leesville/Lodoga Road, last 3.9 miles of gravel); (becomes Lodoga/Sites, then Maxwell/Sites), south on Danley (jog to left at canal) to Freshwater, turning left to finish on Freshwater just before old 99w). Finish is 1 1/2 miles from parking/start area.
