NEW LATE SEASON Routes for the TAM Ride! The cherries, strawberries and peas are done, the corn is high, the peaches are ripe and the sun sets sooner! This week we switch to our late season routes – the summer rolls by.
These routes for the TAM Ride are a little shorter now and similar to the early season routes with a twist – we go up Col du Watson instead of down. It’s the end of the season, you’re stronger than you were back in April (and better looking – all the new kit!). Bringing lights is always a good idea.
Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
