SuperTour 2013

What is SuperTour?

SuperTour is a multi-day cycling adventure. The cycling mainly consists of back to back near or full centuries that sometimes(and on this trip often) include substantial climbing.Overnight accommodation is at campgrounds, SuperTour provides vehicles to carry luggage and camping gear, allowing riders to traverse each day's route carrying only equipment to complete an unsupported daily ride. In addition SuperTour provides a light breakfast, drinks, snacks at the end of the ride and a chef-prepared dinner in camp.

The first SuperTour was held in 1975 by the now defunct Diablo Wheelmen of Concord,Ca. The ride was so popular it easily survived the collapse of its sponsoring organisation and is now run each year by a volunteer from a previous trip. Route, campgrounds and schedule are all selected by the organiser. The tour has travelled to many locales and regions, including Oregon, Idaho,Colorado, Wyoming,Montana,Washington State,New Mexico,British Columbia,Alberta,Quebec,

and France.SuperTour has traversed parts of California 14 times(most recently in 2010)

however much of this years route was last visited in 1991 and 1998 and significant portions are new territory.
