A domestique's home roads
Gran Fondo Hincapie's 2026 Gran route packs 8,040 feet of climbing into about 85 miles, with three timed climbs and a speed zone through the Blue Ridge foothills. The Skyuka descent is steep enough that carbon-clincher rim-brake wheels are prohibited, and the organizer warns that a few short sections are unpaved — sustained climbing and descent control define this course.
For the rider with only six weeks left and five to nine hours a week, this rescue plan keeps the work most likely to matter across three timed climbs: repeatable sustained climbing, steep-descent control, and recovery. It makes purposeful use of current fitness without claiming to replace lost months.
INSIDE THE SAVE MY RACE PLAN — 5–9 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat-training protocols for racing in the hot stuff, peloton skills workouts, and nutrition and hydration guidance.
The Complete Gran Fondo Hincapie Guide — the training, the tactics, the gear and race day, explained simply and clearly: what to do, when to do it, and why it works.
