Will never do a road race on that gravel again. Did the 99er in 2015 with Elite bunch. Hitting that gravel at over 40km/h resulted in a lot of guys crashed and getting punctures.

Probably will roll with folks in F, not keen to ruin my holiday on fighting for position on the gravel.

 

entered, going to follow savage's lead and drop back a few groups and do it as a fun ride.

 

No way I'm playing hero on that gravel section

To be honest, if there is nobody in A on the morning we will pop to the front and try sneak a win. But for now, domestiques ;)

will this rain we currently experiencing make that gravel section any safer/better?

 

 

It will smooth out the corrugation somewhat

 

Just be aware of the descent in the final 1/3 of the segment.

That's where it becomes risky to stay upright

With so many Cat 1 & Cat 2 riders that usually race league & now boycotting the PPA LEAGUE, will most likely start in the A & B seeded groups.

The descent

The start is a false flat and then drops into this
