The first high-altitude lap is only reconnaissance for the second
GFNY San Luis Potosí returns Sunday, December 6, 2026 with a 154.3-kilometer competitive long route and 2,237 meters of climbing. The course doubles a circuit from the historic center that includes a 13-kilometer Pozuelos ascent averaging three percent and reaching 7.9 percent, a broad Sierra descent, and a host-city altitude near 1,877 meters.
For the experienced rider training seven to eleven hours a week, this recovery-first twelve-week Alpine-Fondo plan pairs repeatable climbing, altitude-aware pacing, and second-lap durability with deliberate freshness so accumulated fatigue does not decide San Luis Potosí.
INSIDE THE MASTERS 50+ PLAN — 7–11 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat protocols for when your race calls for them, peloton skills workouts, nutrition and hydration guidance, an altitude module, and recovery-first Masters 50+ structuring.
The Complete GFNY San Luis Potosí 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.

Hey, I'm Matti. I spent 11 years at TrainingPeaks, where they trusted me to teach coaches how to coach at TrainingPeaks University. I raced Amateur Elite with Rio Grande Cycling Team and podiumed my age group at Unbound 200 in 2026. I have a degree in biology and exercise physiology from St. Olaf. I'm also a middle-aged dad of three, so I know training doesn't happen in a vacuum. I help gravel riders get stupidly fast without becoming the person who brings a food scale to a party
