I have done Elephant before, but I am curious what is the best 50 miles and under get together? The Buena Vista one looks rather intrigueing to me. Any thoughts on those or others would be great

Thanks :thumb:

Tour de Vineyards in Palisade. It's 25 easy miles, much less crowded than E-Rock, and a big wine tasting festival follows.

the circle the summit site not the ride is being worked on site does state date
the retail store hosting the site when out of business the ride is in 3rd or 4th yr
proceeds go to build swan mtn bike paved path a ride that really benefits bicycling by building more miles of bike trails ... that's one i want to support

I'm riding the Buena Vista century for the first time this year. I've heard it's a good ride and post ride meal/beer.
