GranFondo San Diego Routes — 100, 60 & 35 Mile Bike Rides

Choose your route for Sunday, April 18, 2027. All three rides start and finish at Ruocco Park on the downtown San Diego waterfront.

Gran Fondo Route — 100 Miles

Take on the ultimate GranFondo San Diego challenge. The 100-mile route travels from the San Diego waterfront into East County’s beautiful backcountry and includes approximately 6,600 feet of climbing. Riders will experience the classic Great Western Loop, a timed Japatul Road climb, four fully stocked aid stations with bathrooms, and comprehensive event support before returning to the waterfront finish celebration at Ruocco Park.

Medio Fondo Route — 60 Miles

The 60-mile Medio Fondo offers the perfect middle-distance Gran Fondo challenge. Starting on the San Diego waterfront, the route travels toward the San Diego backcountry and Otay Lakes, with approximately 3,100 feet of climbing, three stocked aid stations with bathrooms, beautiful scenery, and full rider support.

Piccolo Fondo Route — 35 Miles

Want the GranFondo experience without riding 60 or 100 miles? The 35-mile Piccolo Fondo is designed for recreational cyclists and riders looking for a shorter challenge. The mostly flat-to-rolling route includes approximately 1,300 feet of climbing, one stocked aid station with a bathroom, and the same waterfront finish celebration enjoyed by riders in the longer events.

Event Start Staging

You can meet up with all your friends at the finish line party and enjoy your included Italian lunch and beer together on the San Diego waterfront.

Now that is a great way to enjoy Sunday together.
