Stage 1
Start Time: 11:00am
Estimated Finish Time: 2:30pm
Nampa Recreation Center
Some of the most beautiful landscape in Idaho will be highlighted on this demanding course where the riders will race by scenic Lake Lowell, rolling hills and vineyards, along the Snake River, tackle some epic “Queen of the Mountain” climbs and spread the energy and excitement around downtown Nampa. The Expo and Finish Festival at the start/finish line will feature activities and entertainment for the whole family.
Best Viewing:
From the Queen of the Mountain (QOM) on Pump Road you can see the race come down the valley, turn onto the climb, and then see the riders sprint for QOM points. In all, you get about 10 minutes of action from one vantage point. Or watch lap one on Pump Road then drive back to Nampa in time for the sprint finish next to the Rec Center.
Distance: 74.7 miles / 120.0 km
Total Climbing: 1800 feet / 550 meters
