Headshot Posted August 15, 2016 Share Time to do some bike light and battery testing. This is going to be interesting on my 160mm travel trail bike :-) The_Phoenix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos Posted August 15, 2016 Share @Esels, That's a pitty. I wasn't aware that would be the arrangement. Are there any entries left for the 3 day race? @Wolver, The date has moved back and forth between October and Nov but its always been the same race/festival so I don't see there being another event.

THE TRACKSThese are NOT the final profiles of each stage, but it is an estimate. DAY 1 This 40km will be a day\night ride starting at 6pm so the correct lights will be required. We expect the average rider to do the last 20km in the dark. This section of track has been part of our normal night race of the festival over the past few years and has a total elevation gain of 740m. It will be a bunch start but will have plenty of passing opportunities. The results from Day 1 will be used to seed the riders for the next day which will be a 60km race with approx. 30km single track.
