Bike Course (24.8 Mile/ 40 KM)
The bike course takes you over the bay on a straightaway into Miami Beach using the Julia Tuttle Causeway. The two lap course provides you with a challenge as you climb the causeway while remaining within view of Escape Island. This portion of the course requires you to climb the causeway's bridges 8 times, and this is where the better riders are separated from the rookies. The course also passes through Miami’s revamped Wynwood Design District and past some of Miami Beach’s well known mansions along Alton Road.
