Blackadder Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Can anyone provide any information about the venue for this race, The Big Red Barn.
Blackadder Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 I checked the link before I posted. Contains no significant information at all
Mikesa9 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I am also keen to see a profile of the new route. Can anyone help?
jcza Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Would be helpful but I've never seen a profile prior to a USN race
MtbBarbie Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Going to give it a try anyway! Keen to see this new single loop...
ACM Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I emailed the race organiser and asked about the total ascent and here's his response "The Total accent for the 50km event is about 350m and the 30km about 180m. Both events are pretty flat and will be pretty fast. There is some really awesome single tracks, so all and all it should be a great morning out on the MTB bike." Not riding tomorrow, so have a great day for those that will be riding. MtbBarbie 1
ShawnMano Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I did the 50 k great single track fast and flat only complaint was at +- 33 km the 35km riders join with the 50km riders after that the bottle knecks started. Had a great ride and a nice venue
MtbBarbie Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Loved the 50km route! Really quick and some awesome singletrack!  The merging was a slight pain, but the 30km guys were happy to move over and let me pass! Makes for pleasant racing! Loved the dry, dusty conditions! Everything you expect from winter races!
Guest Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Barbie - were you in Buycycle kit today? only blonde I noticed out on the track..?
Blackadder Posted June 16, 2012 Author Posted June 16, 2012 I enjoyed the 30km route as well. Event was very well organised, and staggered starts reduced the bottlenecks a little.
Guest Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Nope, was not I... Was in pink Saxo kit! dammit, we were looking for you.
Craig Slow Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Cool race, I did 30km, the newly cut single track went on an on.... Where can we find the results?
MtbBarbie Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Glad Karma didn't find me then  Not hard to miss though, pink everything and Dylan announced me coming in...
Guest Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Glad Karma didn't find me then  Not hard to miss though, pink everything and Dylan announced me coming in... oh is that so? you won R25k in our Nigerian Lottery and I simply wanted to present you with the cheque.Nm then MtbBarbie 1
