dannygirl Posted August 28, 2017 Share Anybody have any useful info on the 65km? Seems that the website has the same description for the 45km and 65km...so not really helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolla Posted August 28, 2017 Share The 65km will follow on the 45km route and then turn away into the mountains. It is more jeep track and roads trough the citrus orchards. there will be a lot of short steep climbs .There will be 2 water points on the 65km route and 1 0n the 45km route.The weather looks fine for Saturday.Might get hot for the back markers on the 115kmHope this helps Desi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky4130 Posted August 28, 2017 Share The main climb is that tackled in reverse or is it in the same direction every year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolla Posted August 28, 2017 Share It is the down ride. So the main climb will be later in the race and yes you will attack it from Algeria side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brenna Coupland Posted August 29, 2017 Share Looks like the 2015 route - is this the "down" route? The one we can expect this year? https://www.strava.com/activities/386710692 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milky4130 Posted August 30, 2017 Share does anyone know if the entire route is possible on a Cycloscross Bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezer Posted August 30, 2017 Share does anyone know if the entire route is possible on a Cycloscross Bike?Yes, if you can handle sinkplaat. There is about 400m singletrack at the end, but that is the most technical of the route. milky4130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
