Death Ride: Tour of the California Alps
Turtle Rock Park, Markleeville, CA
![]()
A grueling one-day century ride through Alpine County that climbs five mountain passes above Markleeville for more than 14,000 feet of total elevation gain, widely regarded as one of the hardest organized rides in American cycling. First held in 1981, it draws cyclists from across the country each July.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
