SL GranFondo. Day 2 ride, June 19

Day 2 of the SL GranFondo is generally a shorter & easier ride. Our slow ascent from Keremeos to Princeton day 1 turns into a gradual descent along the Old Hedley road beside the river. From Keremeos to the Oliver junction is the most difficult portion of the ride, including a a Cat 3 climb. Then its all down hill to the finish back in Penticton!

In case you don't have an account with Map My Ride, here is some detail about day 1 of the SLGF, June 18.
The route leaves from Penticton along the east side of Skaha Lake. We'll make our way down to Osoyoos through Oliver riding a mix of the Hwy 97 & backroads. This stage of the ride will be a great warm up as the route gradually descends to Osooyos.
Coming out of Osoyoos is our most challenging climb- a long ascent that is largely cat 3. From there we coast into Keremeos, and finish with a gradual ascent to Princeton.
