That means you have to do it twice? Kinda like a 2 day stage event, but in just 1 day.

So modest. Looking forward to this one, hopefully get a few training rides out there in the interim. Similar route to last year?

Should be, can't see why tim would change it since it was the best of all the trailseeker races.(They brought the different distances home on different trails...no congestion). Just joublixem that could cause havoc....but that is where I am planning my attack :whistling:

YOU told me last year we weren't going up blixem so after sprinting up to the church I fell apart on blixem, limped home and drowned my sorrow with monster, jager and beer. Must find the pics from last year.
