Vuelta de Bisbee 27 in 2005

The 27th edition of La Vuelta de Bisbee stage race (LVDB) will be held from April 22-24, 2005. This three-day, four-stage event features an uphill time-trial prologue, two road stages and a time trial. The senior men, Pro 1-2, riders will cover more than 175 miles of racing and 10,000 feet of climbing, while the senior women and master men will cover slightly less distance and climbing.

The high-desert terrain of Southeastern Arizona with its rural highways that lace through mountainous desert canyons and slope down and away from the historic mining town has drawn racers to Bisbee since 1976. LVDB boasts past winners such as Greg Lemond (who won as a 16-year old in 1978), Bob Cooke (1977, 79), Alexi Grewal (1992), Scott Moninger and Jeannie Longo (2002) and most recently, Davide Frattini and Lynn Gaggioli (2004).
