Can We Survive The Biggest Bike Race In America?

Ollie and Hank decided to enter the biggest bike race in America, El Tour de Tucson. At 100 miles long, this was a test of endurance, but also speed. They tried to break the 4-hour 100-mile time barrier. Will Ollie and Hank manage to hit their target or fall behind the peloton?

I was there this year, finished in 4 hrs, 19mins. Such a fast race and the weather was perrrrrfect! No wind, 70 degrees at the finish. I averaged just over 23.1 mph, not bad for 55 years old 😊 The key is to stay in one of the two fast groups that form after the Pistol Hill climb.

NO WAY!! The el Tour de Tucson is what got me interested in cycling in the first place. There was a year the route went right in front of my house, and I was so excited when my mom brought me out to see the riders. From then I started riding my crummy old bike longer than I ever had. That following summer I watched the Tour de France for the first time, and saved up enough money to get en entry level road bike. I have been watching you all for years, and earlier this year I told myself I’d get back into it after being inspired once more from a few key videos. I signed up for the tour and started training again. A few years later since the first few times I road in the el Tour and now with kids, I was much slower, but enjoyed being able to be part of such a wonderful event again. I’m glad you all got to enjoy it as much as I did, thank you for visiting our old pueblo home!

[@batporio]

I guess that is the result of Hank always being up for any tourture that you throw his way! Adversity builds up strenght and character and he showed that in this race. Well done lads!

It is just part of our week at this point😂 What should be Hank's next challenge?👀

Kudos to Hank and Ollie for finishing Platinum in the 40th. El Tour de Tucson. As a Tucson area resident, I'm stoked to see our area on GCN. I've personally ridden the El Tour de Tucson 10 or so times and it's always a blast, though I've never finished under 4 hours. I certainly hope you all also had the opportunity to ride up our scenic and famous Mt. Lemmon highway, 40 km of climbing. It's an iconic ride in these parts. GCN should also consider sending GMBH riders out to ride the 24Hours of the Old Pueblo race, another epic event.

[@gcn]

We loved our time in Tucson, Thank you for having us!

The new place I’m living has some pretty good ones, and the green sauce is way better here, but they’re still a notch or two below TX imo. There’s still a place I haven’t tried yet that’s apparently the best, but the line of cars is always down the block when I ride by…Anyway, awesome video, thank you! 💜🥇🌯😁 :edit: …oh, I’m an idiot, I thought you were asking “what’s a burrito report?” 🤦🏻‍♀️😅

This is a huge event in Tucson now. It has been held for 40 times know and I would say it is the new El Tour de Tucson. It is flatter, faster, and is bigger.
