We've been slacking a little, but we've been telling everyone it is coming. The second ILLmanzo! For all you folks that have either already done the famous Almanzo or just don't want to drive all the way up to Minn for a weekend, come hang out with us in the Driftless Region. 

The starting point is the same as last year but that is about it. We will be going the opposite direction and there are some new roads that we have never ridden before. This route is assembled from the long route of the 2015 Ten Thousand and a few other roads that was assembled by the map master, Chad Ament. 

This is a totally self supported ride. And most definately not a race. There is one gas station/mini mart on the route at mile 29. So plan accordingly to make it another 40 miles after that. The start time is 10 am so it can be a one day event for everyone. And afterwards there is a small brewery/resturant on the way back home to load back up all those calories you just burned off. 

If you've never been I suggest you make the journey. The hills out here are leg burners and the scenery is fantastic. Wr hope to see you all there!
