Re: Fun fun times
So we just finished, more info to come later on results, but I wanted to share the highlights of the race brief:
1.) The bike is very, very difficult, calculate your efforts. The run is. . . well its also very difficult.
2.) On the bike, you will be coming down a hill at about 65-70km. You will enter a tunnel, it doesn't have lights, and your eyes will not adjust in time, so you won't see anything. It bends to the left, and its not. . . what's the word. . . asphalt, its cobblestones. There could be some sand and other stuff in there as well, we don't know.
3.) We had to change the run course because of wars.
Everyone we went with survived.
