Location: East side of the mountain at the corner of Guadalupe Canyon Parkway and Old Bayshore Highway in Brisbane.

Event Description: After the mass-start, riders tackle the east side of San Bruno, with its steady 7-8% grades. Approximately half-way, the road levels, where you'll turn and enter the park. Don't let up the effort though! You'll then pass under a tunnel into the final stretch, where the narrow road tackles a series of switchbacks at 8% to 10% grade. Rounding the last, the finish will will be close ahead. Give it everything you have all the way to the line!
