Hi there!
Speaking of BAO, I have a question about the Pro/Am route.
I think maybe a segment got skipped in the description on the website.
>>The Pro/Am route follows the same route as the Advanced and Advanced/Intermediate, until the turnoff at Redwood Road. At this point, the Pro/Am route continues straight on Skyline and through some rolling hills. At mile 26 you will begin a long, steady climb up Redwood Road, which lends itself to some of the most picturesque views of the day! You will come down Pinehurst to a right hand turn which will then take you up Pinehurst. <<

If the ride continues straight on Skyline without turning onto Redwood Road, how do we join back up with that 'long steady climb up Redwood Road'?
Seems like some roads got skipped. How can a girl train if she doesn't know what roads to ride??

Does anybody have the full route?

Thanks!!

Sorry for any confusion - the description on the website certainly isn't comprehensive - it's just an overview.

Attached is a PDF of the full turn sheet for the Century route. It's the same as last year, for those of you that are returning riders.

Let me know if you have problems getting it.
