Hello, Bike Racers of NM!
The Tour of the Rio Grande Bicycle Century 2024 is set for 9/29.
The first registration increase is 5/1. Visit
www.torgbc.com for more information and registration.
There are a few changes for the route this year.
- 80mi and 100mi riders will continue up NM-116 / N Main St in Belen. Riders said it worked out well last year to avoid NM-109 and the trains that often stop blocking the road.
- Rest Stop 1 will be changed from the Los Lunas Transportation Center to the BadLands Drive-in at the corner of NM-314 and Morris rd. Los Lunas offered it as an easier option for riders.
- Isleta Blvd south of Rio Bravo is getting paved. I am unsure when this is going to happen but I am in contact with Bernco's Road Manager.
- Riders while traveling through Isleta Pueblo are to stay on NM-314 only. Please do not enter the Pueblo proper.
We hope to see you this September. Till then, enjoy your Spring and Summer!
Sincerely,
Michael O. Wieclaw
Operations Manager
