Climbs look good and plenty enough, not fan of the smooth descents - would like to see more roots and rocks (technical stuff). Nice jumps to get the A liners the advantage. That mandatory (for now) 2-3m gap though - I'd imagine some ladies (all categories) might have a problem with it - I wonder if really stays like that or there will be a plank (yes MVdP, i'm looking at you :D ) or B line during the race.
 
Well, we thought that last year - and he came down with a bug and finished 4th........Again he won't have a great starting position, but it's a gamble they've decided is worth taking. Could be worse - starting at the back like MvdP.

I saw some shots of British Trinity rider Cam Mason on the course.....he'll give him any info beforehand.

Horrible news from Glasgow.

He was home here in Boulder, CO when it happened. We are all gutted. RIP. Yesterday two riders on a tandem were hit and severely injured after be struck by a motorcycle on one of the mountain roads. The motorcyclist died after crashing trying to flee the scene. Be careful out there everyone. 😟
