Swamdo: Swami's Gran Fondo, Saturday, November 9 This year, Swamdo registration is free for everyone! The routes are as scenic and challenging as before, only better - we've kept the best parts and incorporated different roads back to the finish. There are fully supported rest stops at Fallbrook, Temecula and Escondido. You’ll enjoy our 9th Swami’s Gran Fondo more than ever! Swami’s members who register will have the option of purchasing a delicious Rouleur sandwich plus a drink of their choice, including any of their amazing beers, all for $10. WHAT YOU GET Our Grande (Full Century) still has an unforgettable leg-busting loop through De Luz. Both the Medio and Grande feature beautiful Couser Canyon, while the Piccolo takes you on West Lilac. All routes bring you back to the party via Jesmond Dene and San Marcos. At Rouleur Brewing, compare your stories of the day with your compatriots. KOM/QOM To spice things up, we have exciting KOM and QOM prizes for the Strava "Champagne Room" segment. You must be registered to win!
