Re: 20K Ultratrail bikepacking race
No, but it looks good. Some of the images suggest it uses some of the same tracks as the Torino-Nice, around Chialvetta. One I'd like to explore for the crossovers.

Hmm... like doing four BB200s.
Pass!
Pass!
Re: 20K Ultratrail bikepacking race
Another one to add to the list for next year. Looks like the route includes quite a bit of road and gravel (no mention of trails) so perhaps one for the cx bike. It would be interesting to see how this compares to the Torrino-Nice
Re: 20K Ultratrail bikepacking race
It covers a fair bit of of the same ground actually, looking a bit closer at the images and map, just different ends and maybe some more MTB-like trails in places.liamg wrote:It would be interesting to see how this compares to the Torrino-Nice
It uses the Jafferau climb that is on my ride list, looks stunning but the TNR passes that one. Would make a good trip, there's so many good tracks in that area.
