• Yeh word! Someone said yesterday about my Scott ‘you might want to swap the bars, post etc for xc, they’re a bit heavy’ and I pointed out I was 91kg so it might not help!

    Out of interest how long typically would a lap be for a 12/24hr type race? We’re planning a 12hr fundraiser for our local track around the park and the best loop I’ve found is 2.2km with 50m climbing, some single track descent, bit of flat easy path and a fire road type climb. I’m sure it’ll get repetitive but is that too short a lap?

  • The ones I raced in Oz would take the fast guys 45min and pack-fodder like me say an hour so 2.2km does sound a bit on the short side. How many riders on track? Will it get torn up fast and then be shit to ride?

  • I've only done a couple, but laps were 8 miles for the 12hr and 6 miles for the 24hr

    I can only dream of 91kg
