Departure was scheduled for 8:00AM from the Barclin Pemex/Circle K (the last stop on the Sonoyta Highway), but nearly a hundred entrants were gathered by 7:00 for an hour or so of preparation, double-checking and testing equipment and sharing what was obvious camaraderie among a genre of like-minded, totally fat-free fit folks out to test their skills and stamina against those of their peers doing what they love—pushing the bike and themselves to the limit from start to finish.
For the fifth consecutive year the Pelicans of Puerto Peñasco along with 80 to 100 of their fellow cyclists will gather at the Barclin Circle K Pemex Station (that’s the last one on the road to Sonoyta) for an 8:00 AM departure. Trophies will be awarded in three categories:
