John Webster with Colorado Springs Cycling and Tricia Patrick with SocoVelo are offering a 65-mile road ride in Grand Junction, CO similar to the Tour of the Moon at Colorado National Monument. The group will meet in Grand Junction. This will be an overnight trip. Details regarding lodging and itinerary will be discussed and a text chain will be started for communication throughout and prior to the trip.

John will be leading the CSC group and Tricia will be leading SocoVelo. We recommend each rider has the route downloaded prior to the start of the ride. This will be a road ride, so you’ll need to be comfortable in traffic and climbing steep gradients. Please contact Tricia Patrick via phone at 719-306-2266. Please bring snacks and hydration to have for the ride and throughout the day. The group plans to have dinner collectively after the ride close to the start of the ride.
