"The Trans Alba Race is a self supported cycling ride around Scotland"
No it's not. Trans = across ffs
At least I learned what 'Alba' means now though so there's that. I'd assumed it was something in South America and ignored it until now.

With the climbing I’ve kinda guessed the route and a huge chunk is uninspiring if I’m right.
Also getting a feeling a lot of these events are popping up purely for money making not the values i see in some of the “big” events
