Feel free to come and pre-ride the course! The route is marked with large painted arrows on the road labeled TDL. GREEN ARROWS take you from the Farmers Market on Main Street, down 4th street, and around the course for the first 20 miles. RED ARROWS take you around the last half of the course back to the finish line. WHITE 'HC' ARROWS indicate the 2 shortcuts used by the hand-cycling and 2 youngest Juniors categories for an 18 mile loop. Now you know!
