The photo is deceptive. The ‘Wall of Death’ is a lot steeper than it looks on the images and certainly a lot steeper than it looks in the video of Heather!
I had trouble getting up with a 28 front, 27 rear and a racing ralph on the back. I kept losing traction and couldn’t spin up due to not having a low gear.
Apparently it was named the ‘wall of death’ by lafarge (site owners) after using as an off road 4×4 track.
As for the course, it will be a mixture of fire/gravel roads roads and singletrack through the forest.
