RED RIVER RIDE

This ride starts and ends at City Hall in Orlinda, Tennessee. You will experience beautiful agriculture fields located in Kentucky & Tennessee. The ride traverses both sides of the Red River (mile 13.5-17) with only a few glimpses of the river due to thick vegetation. While on State Line Road (mile 22.9-24.7) you can pick which state you ride in just by choosing the north side for Kentucky and south side for Tennessee. Low traffic and smooth roads make this truly cycling nirvana ridden frequently by local cycling groups.

Some spectacular engineering was used to preserve the environment and fit a four lane highway into a small space. A bike path was developed as part of the project and this ride follows the path from west to east through the canyon. In 2020 there was a large wildfire that started in the canyon, you can see burned sections along the ride.

MONTE ZONCOLAN PRIOLA

The very old climb from Priola is from the 1940´s and not easy to find. It was never used in the Giro d'Italia - because the team-cars could not do this climb! Too steep, tight and a bad road surface - but it is an amazing ride on a gravelbike (would definitely not recommend roadbike). The video starts at Sutrio with a little bit of warm-up heading over to Priola where the climb (9.44 km 1139 m of climbing at 12.1% average!) starts. The last 3km are the same like the version from Sutrio which is already on Fulgaz and was used in Giro d'Italia 2021.

WOODEND AND MOUNT MACEDON LOOP

A gradual climb towards Woodend to warm up before taking on the ‘easier’ ascent from the north of Mt Macedon. Don’t believe it’s easy though as you climb through the native woodlands. See the damage from the winter storms as you continue towards the Memorial Cross before a relaxing descent.

OLD AND PECULIER BLACK SHEEP (OC-145)

A long rolling loop around Nidderdale, beginning and ending at Pateley Bridge and passing through Masham, home to the Theakston (Old Peculier) and Black Sheep breweries. Climb up Côte de Lofthouse (Trapping Hill, Official Climbs #145) and then enjoy the fast descent to Masham via Leighton Reservoir. Dodge the first storm of the day at Masham, then continue along the 2019 UCI Worlds iTT course to Kirby Malzeard, and climb again across the moors. Dodge the day's second storm which arrives just before the fast and pedal-free descent back to Pateley Bridge. All of these roads have been used by the Tour de Yorkshire and/or the 2019 UCI Worlds; this complete loop would have been used for the first time in the (cancelled) 2020 TdY, preceded and followed by a descent and then a climb of Greenhow Hill.
