DESCRIPTION: This challenging 12.71 mile loop has a little of everything, rolling hills, long flats and steep climbs. The roads have very little traffic and most have a very wide shoulder. Guess that's why it was chosen as the site of the World Professional Road Racing Championship in 1986.

DIRECTIONS: From I-25, take the Academy Exit and go West. You can drive into the Academy to park or right before the South Gate, there is a large dirt parking lot on the right. You can park here and ride into the Academy. Don't forget to bring your drivers license, you'll need it to get in.
