The Oval

The Oval is a cold hard Colorado classic and the best way to spend a Saturday morning.  Plus it will make you pretty fit too. When this ride reaches its maximum distance of 80 miles it has it all. From flat crosswind sections, rollers, power climbs,  to the long grinds.  The city limit sign east of Berthoud has become a hotly contested mid ride sprint.

Finally! I had a good ride for today’s Oval Ride throw down. This ride always pushes my limits….always. It very well might be one of the hardest things I do on a bike. One minute it is a civilized tempo. The next minutes everyone is sitting on the nose of their saddles wonder how much longer they can push hard on the pedals before the black out and roll off the road.
