Colorado Elephant Rock Route and Profile. Stage 1

While there are numerous reasons to visit Castle Rock Colorado, there is one particular annual event held in the city thats worth planning a vacation around. Named after a natural rock formation that resembles a towering elephant‚ the Elephant Rock Cycling Festival draws thousands participants from all over the surrou...nding areas.
Its 7 AM and, looking ahead, a fantastic journey awaits! The Colorado Elephant Rock Cycling Festival tours some of the most scenic and diverse landscapes along the Front Range. It also presents numerous challenges by the undulating hilly landscape, not to mention challenges provided by other cyclists and our inability to accept being passed.
Stage 1 begins in castle rock and will tour along Highway 83 towards Colorado Springs. Within 10 minutes, we will be presented with the first of numerous high effort climbs. And then we descend into the morning sunrise and battle wind blasted tears.
Stage 1 ends at rest station 1, 1 hour into the ride, where we refuel with Oreos and bananas.
