The official route for 2008 is still in the works- here is a preview of the time stations and overall route. It will start in Oceanside, CA. as it has for years and finish in Annapolis, MD. for the first time. As always the route is spectacular and continues to offer all the challenges the American landscape can throw at the racers – heat, mountains, the plains, and the hills of the east.
