Giro D'Valley Century
02.4.12
We'll be doing a loop around the SFV. Starting around 7:00 at the orange line station at Balboa and Victory, we'll head north on Balboa to
Foothill and start a clockwise loop of the valley. It'll be around 90 miles total and we'll do a couple laps around the park at the end to get the
mileage up to 100.
We're planning to stop for lunch somewhere around sherman oaks and we'll be getting beers nearby afterwards.
There will be lots of climbing, there will be fire roads, the pace will be fast (not too fast but this is not a cruise).
here's the map
