LIFE TIME FITNESS TO HOST INAUGURAL GRAN FONDO CYCLING SERIES EVENT
Unique Ride to Incorporate "Races within a Ride"
Life Time Fitness members and general public are invited to participate in the inaugural Life Time Gran Fondo cycling event. WHAT: Open to recreational and competitive cyclists alike, Gran Fondo (or "Big Ride") events have become increasingly popular in Europe and beyond for their long-distance, mass-participation ride - versus race - format.

It features three 'Races within a Ride' at designated points on the course in which age group winners will be crowned in the three categories: King and Queen of the Mountain, Time Trial and Sprints. Additionally, the event will offer two refueling stations along the route and a festive, post-event BBQ at the finish area for all participants.
