Tiny K Posted August 25, 2011 Share Yup, like the last 20km of this race! That road sucks, there were sections of the median line cut out last year. One guys wheel got stuck, went down and almost bought a whole lot of us down with him Yeah I remember that bit - sounded like we were riding over loose paving cobble stones. Was not cool!

Jaco-fiets Posted August 26, 2011 Share Well I haven't tried yet..... try the PPA website - should have a link there Edit: message to OP - It's Worcester - Although I agree, the pace is quite woes seeing that it is a flattish race. Yeah Firewolf, love the dirt section. Pulled away from my group on it coz they were all too scared to ride it hard p.s. Just mailed the event organiser. Kris pls don leave me in the dust on the gravel section. I will do my best to keep your wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted August 26, 2011 Share I cant see this event being cancelled! Im sure there must be some misunderstanding somewhere. If cancelled they might as well cancel the springleague for 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny K Posted August 29, 2011 Share Here is a route map for the 'new' route (apparently very similar as last year but I don't have the map from last year) Dirt section is on the last few Km's of the route rather than near the beginning / middle like last years race.
