May 31st Standin' on the Corner
300k
-------------------------------------------------------
Description:
The brevet is a loop which starts in Flagstaff and traverses Navajo
Reservation land stopping in the small town of Leupp. From there,
we'll head south for Winslow, AZ. The route takes you past the famous
corner in Winslow, AZ. You'll want to stop and get your photo taken on
the corner. While you're there, you will be listening to the
soundtrack that made it famous.
You'll stop in Winslow to fuel up before heading back into the Arizona
high country. It's a gradual, but long, climb to get back into the
forest. Once you enter the Coconino National Forest, you'll remain
there to the finish. It's a beautiful ride in this area, and one that
few Arizona visitors take the time to experience.
After your control/respite in Happy Jack, you'll climb
some more to reach the high point of the ride (7650'). This area is
high enough to sustain Aspen along with the pines. They are really
beautiful at this time of year. After this, there are only gentle
rollers all the way to the finish.
