Details: Start anywhere on this course if you
wish. I like the following...Corner of Panorama Drive and Lansdown Drive.
Lansdowne to Guildford (Downhill), turn right on Guildford. Guildford to Heritage
Mountain Blvd (Flat). Turn right and head up Heritage, (Moderate climb).
Heritage to David Avenue. Turn right onto David. David to Forest Park Way
(Flat). Turn left onto Forest Park Way. Forest Park Way to Panorama (Steep
Climb). Panorama to Lansdowne (Mild downhill). Lansdowne to Guildford
(Downhill). Turn right onto Guildford. Guildford to Falcon Drive (Flat). Turn
right onto Falcon. Falcon to Noons (Climb and Downhill). Falcon becomes Noons- Noons
to Panorama (Multiple Climbs). Turn right onto Panorama. Panorama to
Guildford, turn around and head back up for the last climb.
Note: On the final decent of Lansdowne turn back
up as you pass under the big yellow sign letting you know of the stop light around the
corner. From this point you can see if any cars are coming. Lots of side
routes that you can take to add to the enjoyment of these short climbs. |
