wow um, that's slightly embarrassing. languishing right at the bottom!
the marshalls told us we were the last ones around the long loop but it says i didn't do it. does anyone know where the extra part was?
Yep bit odd that, I thought the extra loop took you away from and back to the feed station?...I did it too!
Also can't see times for 3 of my mates on there who deffo finished...seems like they've rushed this a bit!...couple of peoples moby no's posted as clubs too....best get those removed!
I initially thought that the loop back to the feed station was "THE loop" but I think the extra loop was further on as I saw riders rejoining the trail and one of them was talking to a girl saying he was the last one to do it.
I'm sure I've heard that there was other options to cut the ride short for people who were taking too long.
Everyone did the loop from the food station out and back again once. I was towards the rear of the event then and got held up by the air ambulance landing. They did however shut off the slabby descent which started at the feed station area where the accident was. I think this accounted for about 1Km. Then a further loop towards the finish was removed.
Finished 603rd!
So does anyone know which section(s) I missed out on - [url] http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/8140833 [/url] (easier to see the route if you download it to Google Earth :-))
100! (about 350 places higher than I finished)
Rich - I know,I remember the Cannock beasting.....Some of my crowd won't come out with me anymore ! 😥 Their loss !
Not amazing but a respectable for a rugby player sized fella 347th. The extra loop was about 1/4 the way up the final climb. The loop closed after the first 200 but went straight on at a junction instead of the left hand (ish) turn uphill which everyone else followed. My/our mate Dave Reed (&wife) were marshalling that point 😉
