We’re excited to be using the Garmin Edge® 705 GPS cycling computers this year! Now you can share in the fun by checking out, downloading and doing our favorite rides.
If you own a Garmin GPS, you can upload the rides to your Garmin and go ride them yourself. If you don’t own a Garmin GPS, well you should go buy one right now! Seriously, if you don’t own a Garmin, you can still do the rides. Just view them on Google Maps or Google Earth, commit them to memory, and go ride!
