Edgar Posted June 9, 2009 Share I did the race. Uge put a really tough course in both the short and long race. The next one is on the 11th of July. We had a group of 6 riders and everybody enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mother Goose Posted June 9, 2009 Share Good to hear yolu enjoyed it! It was probably one of the toughest races I have done but I loved the course....it is what I considder to be a proper MTB race. I could hardly walk on Sunday......but it was well worth it!! Did you do the 70 or the 35 Edgar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Posted June 9, 2009 Share 70(50) ride. Agreed was proper mtb race, half the team did the short course and they are all still getting into the race and had a great time. A lot of time was spent hitting the dirt. I went back the next day for the Trail Run and the finished me off properly. Nothing quite like multi sporting. Which race did you do.

Mother Goose Posted June 9, 2009 Share Did the 70/60km. Finished in 3h03min with 58km on the odo. Some of my crew also missed a 8-10km loop some where. I was cramping like I never have before. Cant wait for the next one. That section through the Henops 4x4 course was really kk going up but serious fun flying on the downhill sections!!Will definately do the next one. Friend of mine (non Cycling) did the run on Sunday and also said it was quite tough!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Posted June 9, 2009 Share Not sure where I missed the loop. Probably concentrating to hard on the awesome track and not on the directions. I spoke to Uge and Mich after the race and they will be improving things for the next one. I hope that does not mean changing the type of route. Well done. Not a bad ride for the kind of course it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mother Goose Posted June 9, 2009 Share I agree!! They must leave the track as is!! just maybe colour code the 35 and 70km route markers and number the ones at the multi crossings. Awesome race!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
