Source Endurance presents the 5th Canyon Belgian Waffle Ride Survival Camp: San Diego 2020
The hugely popular BWR Survival Camp returns allowing riders to preview the official 2020 BWR route over three days of reconnaissance January 17-19, 2020
San Diego, California - The Belgian Waffle Ride (BWR), the most unique cycling event in the country, is now in its ninth year of existence. This year’s edition of the Spring Classic (May 3rd 2020) will offer the same type of insanity, challenge and the unparalleled experience that the event has become infamous for—complete with pain, suffering, ecstasy and agony!
With over 1,700 riders last year and more expected this year, BWR has grown dramatically over the years, both in participants and prestige making it the marquee mixed surface event in the North America.
It is also the most publicized and covered cycling event on the west coast, only outdone by the Tour of California, with media coverage from myriad television channels, Sports Illustrated, Het Laatste Nieuws, the largest newspaper in Belgium, the Huffington Post, Velo News, Road Bike Action and virtually every cycling media outlet in the country!
The BWR offers this growing and special breed the type of experience that requires months, if not years, to train for adequately, while requiring technical bike handling skills and, more importantly, the right equipment and nutrition to survive.
Enter: The BWR Survival Camp
“The focus of BWR Survival Camp will be to allow the riders to preview and beta test the official 2020 BWR route over three days of course reconnaissance.”
