I had another look. It was the number they started in. Think it will update at CP1
staggered start then?
Because there is a 100km parcours from Bellinzona over San Bernardino and Splugen pass down to Chiavena
Howâs the sleep?
From the horses mouth!
KEEP IT GOING
Ah yes, Iâd been looking at the dictated parcours. Looks hillyâŚ
I guess they mandate some sections, so they can keep an eye on everyone?
Guess they would all funnel together as they near the cp.
Someone tell @Sowler that heâs supposed to be riding with his actual pair!
You know what itâs like when youâre riding 2-up - you set off with them on your wheel and you look round after 500km and theyâre gone and youâre not sure where you dropped them
I see the leader Cristoph Strasser actually went via Chur/Thusis, rode the Parcours from the wrong direction, and then U-Turned to do it in the mandatory direction. Novel?
Worth noting that theyâre not actually allowed to ride with someone else (other than pairs in the pairs category)
Rule 11: you are not to make any friends during TCR09
Although it only says no drafting.
Wait - TCR is non-drafting?
ALL FORWARD TRAVEL MUST BE SELF POWERED
so you canât draft off a mateâs car that just happens to be travelling the same way?? pffftâŚ
âAll forward travel overland must be human poweredâ
Cant use aliens either
