This Saturday’s Wiggle Super Series event, The Long One, starts from Fontwell Racecourse. The course has just been published and my reading of the map is that those – like me – doing the 81-mile Standard course will only get one feed station. The 46-mile Short route won’t get one at all (although those doing the Epic 124-miles will get three). Most unusual – it’s certainly going to feel like a long ride, especially as the profile looks like this:
At least the last five miles are mostly downhill!
[Post event note: thankfully, the organisers turned out to have entered one of the feed-station locations incorrectly on the map so all went well in the end.]
