RussT Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I am sure that most of the route is on private land so it will be illegal after the race Yip I get that. I have seen groups riding from the town centre. There are plenty of district roads

ACM Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Looking at the profile I'm even more depro now... Entered for the marathon; would have been my first MTN marathon but broke my leg this weekend at the USN race in a freak accident :-(
WezGK Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Sorry... im a bit of a newbie to reading the routes, how is the ascent and descent calculated? Sorry if stupid question. ..
BarHugger Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Sorry... im a bit of a newbie to reading the routes, how is the ascent and descent calculated? Sorry if stupid question. .. In simple terms:When start and finish is at the same location, what goes up (measured in m) must come down. That means that every hill has a downhill, and every downhill as a hill.
WezGK Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 So 1500m of heavy uphill means some awesome fast downhills? First marathon race, stressing now...

ACM Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Jeez! Sorry to hear.... Was that at BRB? How did that happen?!?!? yip me & another rider got tangled about 50meters from the finish line (both sprinting to the finish); were to close to each other and we bailed. Not sure what happend with the leg, but with the fall, I felt it and knew that was not normal :-(Just bad luck that it broke.
