La Ruta de los Conquistadores is a brutal, three-day mountain-bike race in which participants traverse more than 220 kilometers from Jacó Beach to Playa Bonita, Limón.
Román Urbina, the founder of Costa Rica's famed, multi-stage mountain bike race La Ruta de Los Conquistadores, was officially inducted into the mountain biking hall of fame on Thursday.
The Ruta de los Conquistadores, the famously grueling mountain bike trek across Costa Rica, begins Thursday. Bikers will start in Playa Herradura, Puntarenas and travel three days across jungle, volcanoes, and rivers to the finish in Playa Bonita, Limón.
