Agteros Posted April 22, 2012 Share Seems like the event has a new start venue and a different route. Route seems to go 'downwards' for the first 43km, and then long drag up (120m ascent) to 70km. False flat at 85 and a drag back to the finish at 101km from 90km. Have look here on Cyclelab site for entry/event detailsGoogle Earth seems to indicate that the route will be even FLATTER? 190m ascent vs 350? New route(pink) overlayed over old route(green) Profile as per Google Earth (and the usual spikes & errors that go with that)New Route Old Route Something 'new' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grondpad Posted April 22, 2012 Share When is this? Is this for the race on the 7th & 8th of July? According to the e-mail I reseived there is only a 40km & 80km. The 80km is a two lapper of the 40km, but these profiles doesnt look like a two lapper. Is this a different race?
