The more natural section off the omega man is fantastic, really seems to have ridden in well. All the way down granny green luv I was waiting for a load of tape and we’d suddenly turn off the trailcentre into some sort of slippery death spiral 😆 (and the wee uphill at the end was mean)
But it all has its place- I thought last year’s trailcentry stage (coming down the red climb, with the offpiste slippery bits) worked better even though I always slag that ride-down-a-climb thing but it’s variety isn’t it.
Always something to criticise but I thought it was ace. Oh! The one thing that did annoy me, was being told at the bottom of stage 4 that stage 5 was definitely still closing at 3:30, and beasting up the hill only to find they kept it open for ages. Correct decision without a doubt but bad comms. But pretty trivial.
