John first introduced this ride to us about ten years ago and it has been a favorite ever since. The particulars of this ride are familiar to many of the Rexburg locals. It features four climbs for a total of over 7000 ft vertical in just over 70 miles. In my estimation, Pebble Creek is the toughest climb in the area with over two miles of sustained grades of 12%. We had a smaller group this year, but it was the A Team. Thanks to everyone for the ride. The Pocatello Ride has become a tradition for us in late May or early June. It is fun, hard, and scenic. I look forward to it every year. I feel like it is valuable Crusher training as well as a good opportunity to benchmark early season fitness. This can be a hot ride or subject to bad weather conditions of any variety, but it was nearly perfect this year with mild comfortable temperatures.
My friends and I are planning to try this Pocatello ride, any tips or suggestion which month is the best to go for it? Thanks in advance.
