A Ghostly Sub 19: Check this out :

On To Baldy:
The toughest Amgen Tour Of California  yet.
http://velonews.competitor.com

Stage 7: Claremont to Mt Baldy
From the start in Claremont, the riders will be able to see the finish some 6,000 feet above them in the San Gabriel Mountains.
The final route hasn't been set, but it will feature the locally iconic climbs of
Glendora Mountain Road and Glendora Ridge Road,
before heading up to the Baldy ski area, which features 11-percent grades in the final 5km.
The first true mountaintop finish in the race's six-year history should give rise to a true Tour de France atmosphere.

Messick: "We'll have a mass participation ride on the route of the Baldy stage, a couple of week before, to give people the taste of how hard it is to race in the pro peloton."
