Tunnel of TREES!!!
The race leaders at the 2007 Priority Health Tour De Leelanau navigate through the "Tunnel of Trees" up the Inspiration Point KOM Climb.
2007 Priority Health Tour De Leelanau - Hermann Rd KOM
While more climbs remain in the race, the climb up Hermann Road is the last King and Queen of the Mountain points sprint (KOM/QOM).
The slog up Herman Road is a "BEAST" of a climb and comes at the 77 mile mark and is nearly 2 miles long, twisting as an "S" curve as it approaches the top.
In this video you can see the leaders gritting their teeth as the crest the top.
After summitting the racers plunge down through several well known vineyards towards the village of Suttons Bay.
