Beet-it-Up Route – 60+ milesÂ
For those with road bikes who want to ride Beet-it-Up I suggest getting some Gatorskin or Armadillo tires at your lbs (local bike shop!). They're awesome and will last a very, very long time. Great for unforgiving urban pavement as well, and will help to keep your rims true. Or just bring an extra tube and a dolla bill ya'll.
