Right Now... Bakersfield Triathlon Saturday, May 17th, 2008 The Bakersfield Triathlon brought to you by Action Sports Frazier Mountain Loop Sunday May 18th Meet at AM / PM MiniMart at Hwy 99 and Panama at 8:00 We will drive to Frazier Park to ride the Frazier Mountain Loop which is a counter-clockwise loop as shown on the satellite photo, ride profile too. The climb is similar to the Portuguese Pass road, wide dirt road, consistent grade for 7 miles, then it's ridge-running rollers (4 1/2 miles). The drop into Hungry Valley is just that, a drop, a fun drop, a brake cookin', tired hands no pedlin' fun drop. Then it's the return route which has ups & downs aplenty as it ascends to the end. Click here to see the profile and map. This is a challenging ride, be prepared for the following statisics: 26.5 hard miles (nothing flat, nothing straight), 5:32 ride time, 5789 feet of climbing After the ride we will retire to Janice's house in Lake of the Woods (near Frazier Park) for a BBQ. Side dishes and sodas will be supplied, bring your own meat to bbq.
