Continue reading “Sibbald Flats : Beginner Ride on Pavement”Note: As of June 3, 2021 the road surface is not as good as in past years. For the North gate to Summit route there are sections of rough pavement as well as a few herds of mountain sheep to contend with on your swift descent. Our current recommendation, is to do this route from the South gate to the Summit as the road is in better condition. On Sunday, June 12, 2021 there were cyclists reporting that it was snowing at the summit.
Ride Difficulty Rating: Expert , also an expert level of logistics and planning required!!
