Anyone in AC racing interested in doing this event? Its an 80km handicap, $6000 in prizes. Might be a good opportunity for us to show off our racing colours again!

Entries are limited to 250 riders, so I would imagine it will fill up soon.

Sorry Peter,
Just checked our plans. Probably doing Col du Tourmalet that day or Hautacam or Luz Ardiden or Col d'Aubisque.

Choices, choices!!

pfft......take the soft option then why don't you

It MAY be softer than that race!
Those roads out that way are DEAD!!

I'll take the SOFT mountain option anyday.

Unfortunately I couldn't do this race because I was sick however Andrew M did it. I found these pics of Andrew from the race, maybe he can give us an account of how it unfolded for him.
