At time 2:40 the Garmin rider riding along a stretch of land housing retired military planes (affectionately known as the Boneyard, and previously mentioned in this post). This location is about 1.5 miles from my house!
At about 3:00 the pair of riders are starting at the base of Mt. Lemmon, approximately 11 miles from the Boneyard. The route on Mt. Lemmon is about 26 miles long & starts at an elevation of about 2550 feet and ends at 8200 feet in the town of Summerhaven. You can actually climb a little bit higher, but most people stop at Summerhaven. It took me about 6 hours to do this climb on a road bike. A lot of elite professional riders do this climb in about 2 hours. The ride down is a big adrenaline rush - it took me about 45 minutes to get down, averaging at about 45 mph.
The control room also looks like it's from Tucson, but I can't confirm that. If anyone knows, give me a holler!
I know My Orange Brompton and The Brompton Bumble B are rocking Garmin units, and perhaps I will join them soon!
