Tri States Gran Fondo

Course/Ride Description:
Heading north from Mesquite, in just over a mile you cross the border into Arizona, and after a bit of rolling terrain, up you'll climb - straight into Utah and to your first summit at mile 27. You're rewarded with an incredible 7 miles of scenic descent, where you'll get your first glimpse of the beautiful red rocks which make Southern Utah famous. Hang a left at the bottom of the hill and enjoy the rolling terrain out to Gunlock State Park. Past Gunlock you'll continue a gradual climb to Eagle Mountain- a short, but quad busting 10-12% grade. From here it's mostly up - finally climbing "the Wall" to the quaint town of Veyo, your next summit at mile 50. Enjoy some pie and then head back the way you came. Save something for the end! At mile 65 you'll hit the last big climb - 7 miles on the return trip over Utah Hill. From here, it's mostly downhill, across the border into Arizona, and finally back to Mesquite, Nevada, where you can relax, revel in your success and enjoy the celebration of a fantastic day in the saddle! Distance: 100 miles with about 7,800' of climbing. Link to map and elevation profile is available on the website!
