Sea2Sky FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) page has been updated each year and was set up in order to help answer some of the more common questions you might have for the event.
Course Maps
We do not release the course maps to the greater public. Why? Because we spend hours and hours setting up our event courses and getting many permits and permissions and do all this for the event. Thsisa lot of tiem an evenergy We will give out some course descriptions.
What Type of Bike is Best for a Gravel Fondo
In Our Estimation any bike is adequate for a fun gravel ride but specifically a bike with fatter tires in order to run lower pressures. This could be Gravel Bikes, Cyclocross bike, Mountain Bike, Hybrid Bike, Touring bike or Road Bike. (and yes even e-bikes) You do not need Suspension like on a Mtn bike but road bike tires with high pressure and hard gearing (although you can do it on that kind of bike) is not ideal as it not that comfortable and the gearing is usually too hard. We will be providing specific information for each type of bikes with tire sizes and gearing for the event as we get closer toe event day.
Teams
How do the Teams work. We have teams of 2 and teams of 4 categories. It is the combined time of all 2 or all 4 Team members and the lowest combined times wins.
All Team members (either 2 or 4) must be in the same event distance and also start and finish the event to be eligible for the team event prizing.
