Just when it looked like Cyclocross had taken over the calendar, one last mountain bike race pulls us away. This isn't just any race either. La Ruta is widely known as the hardest bike race on the planet. Cyclingdirt will be on-site for the entire event bringing you not only coverage from the race, but everything that goes along with it.

I did this race in '04 when it was three stages.Let's just say, I finished within the time limits... I am going back in 2011 for my 50th!
Colt, stage 1 between PC1 and PC2 is pretty dense jungle good place for some "footie"..Are you going to be able to follow on "moto"?
Make sure to get the bridge sections on the last stage. The swinging/loose rail road ties on the bridges are pretty crazy, especially over the larger rivers!

have fun..

This will be fun to watch; have fun.

I've also been in Logan at 4 am and for a while there were ZERO people inside, then all of a sudden, it was packed.

YES!!! Man, this coverage is going to blow all other coverage out of the water!!

Took that exact trip on my honeymoon last September. They are cycle crazy in Costa Rica. Can't wait for coverage of this epic race. Thanks!!
