  • Description: This route travels from Historic Downtown Casa Grande to Coolidge, then south on Pinal Parkway to Tucson before returning to Casa Grande.

    Distance: 190 miles

    Terrain: Flat for the first 30 miles through Casa Grande and Coolidge, then a slight, steady but very long climb on Pinal Parkway (SR79). Once you get off Pinal Parkway, (mile 68) it's a long downhill into Tucson. The only other obstacle is the steep climb up Gates Pass and the screaming descent on the other side. There are a few choppy hills through Saguaro National Park. The last 60 miles are flat and travel through the fields of Marana, past Picacho Peak, and finally back to Casa Grande. Total 3883 feet of climbing
