Starting at the Trek store, this course is a mix of flat and hilly roads that will take you up past the Saugatuck Reservoir, into the hills of Redding, then back down into Fairfield and on to a loop through the historic Southport beach area. 

This course is best suited for someone who lives and breathes cycling. You must feel comfortable riding alongside traffic, but most streets are residential. You will experience several steep hills and some narrow, curving roads.

All cyclists have different stamina, strength and energy, so there's no exact time to be applied. If you are a moderate/strong rider, you may be pedaling at an average of 17+ miles per hour, which means you should finish in about three hours. This is not a race, so feel free to take your time and enjoy the scenery!
