Do I need a racing license?
No,
Will professional riders be there?
Yes, as hosts and ambassadors of their sponsors and cycling
but not to race.
What is the starting order for the gran fondo?
Top fundraising groups (Charity of Choice fundraising teams) will get a priority call out and start in
front of the peloton. They will ride along side the top pros
for the first 10 miles of the ride - parade. After a 5 mile promenade we move the faster riders to the front and stretch our the peloton.
