Take me long enough to question my sanity for entering the race, my fitness levels, and even why I like riding bikes at all.

Take three for the Nimby in about 4 weeks...

That is a cool app - haven't seen it before. I was considering a GPS bike computer but now I see how results can be compared maybe I won't.

I think I would be closer to the top of Happy than the paraglide launch as those guys reach the top. No doubt the guys closer to my speed stopped for lunch halfway up. That may be my race day strategy too.

Cheers Ben

thing about that app is that you can just make your rides private and it'll give you your comparison but won't display it for everyone to see...I've been using it, but mostly just to track my years rides and see what kind of distance/vertical I cover.

gps tracks can be uploaded to strava also

the climb has lots of hike-a-bike moments in the corners unless you are in the front..

I'm already glad I signed up for this race. Without it I don't think I would have made the effort to ride Pemberton yet, plus it has motivated me to get out on those days where the stoke is marginal. Ripper trails!
