El Tour de Tucson is coming!

Tucson roadways are currently over run with cyclists taking their final training rides before Saturday's El Tour de Tucson race. Attendance is expected to be between 10,000-11,000 cyclists this year. That's a whole lot of bikes on the road! Below is the map that shows the routes for this competition. Routes vary in distance from 109 miles (for those serious cyclists) to a family fun ride of 4 miles.

The race route passes through my neighborhood in Oro Valley so I'll be hanging out and taking a few pictures to include in my blog. The expected weather for race day is sunny and 79 degrees. Just perfect!
