Jodo jeje bueno, como experiencia tiene que ser la leche. Si te animas a hacerla ya haras una cronica que sera interesante.
Pues ha sido una semana de locos en el trabajo así que me pongo ahora a preparar la carrera, son las 23:30 y aún no he cenado. He pasado por el decathlon a coger un casco, crema solar, un buff y una riñonera de running. Culotte y maillot lo tenía conmigo, zapatillas llevo unas de walking, guantes no llevo (genial para una prueba de resistencia), y no me afeito las piernas desde hace dos meses. Pero lo peor de todo no esto, sino que he reservado la bici sin verla en Rasen Sports, donde amablemente se han disculpado mientras me informaban de que solo les quedan de 26. La cosa pinta bien. Voy a leerme el reglamento.
Race Categories: 24 hrs 12 hrs 6 hrs Children Swapping Spares: Once on course, normal mountain bike racing rules apply. This means no outside technical assistance and riders must be self-sufficient. Support from other racers on course is allowed, if the racer is also ‘on course’ at the time. This includes swapping spares, tools and even bike parts. Food and drink can be handed to riders by anyone at any time. Before racers get on course, they can swap bikes/bits whatever, as long as the correct number board is kept with the right rider. Bike Specification: Due to the rapid diversification of wheel standards what is considered an acceptable bike to ride is ever evolving. Please remember that this is a mountain bike event and we ask that you enter in the spirit of the event and compete on a proper mountain bike; whether it be 29″, 27.5″, a retro 26″, plus-sized or a Fat Bike. Fat Bikes must have a minimum 3.5” tyre width. No cyclo-cross bikes and no E-bikes are allowed. Race in One Direction: Once on course and out of the start/finish area, racers must follow the course in the racing direction, so a mechanical problem 200m from the start must be fixed on course. In the case of a major mechanical, the rider must still complete his or her lap, so a well-maintained bike and a comprehensive toolkit are vital. If you’re not racing, then you can’t ride on the course while the race is on. Cheating: Substituting unregistered riders, racing outside your normal category, cutting through the tapes, having outside assistance, short-cuts and any other cheating will result in instant disqualification for the whole team – so don’t even think about it… Riders must race within the course tape. Where it has not been possible or practical to erect course tape, then they must stick to the obvious trail. Please note that littering, gel wrappers etc. on the trail will also lead to disqualification. Each lap is not that long and riders will have ample opportunity to dispose of their rubbish in the bins provided as they pass through the start / finish zone. Timing: The system revolves around transponder chips that everyone must wear. Pick them up at sign on, and please return them to the registration desk after the race. As you pass through the timing area, there is something that works like an airport metal detector. By simply riding through, the system will detect your racing chip and credit you with that lap and time. The clock then starts on the next lap, whoever might be doing it. If you are doing another lap, just carry on. If another rider is doing the next lap, hand the timing chip over to them. Their lap time will stop when they pass through the timing area. Lights: Being a 24-hour race, it’s going to get dark and all racers who are on course between sunset and sunrise must have two working lights. The main light must be a suitable power to light the trail and have enough power to last the lap. A backup light is needed for on-trail repairs or in case the main light fails. This can be a head torch or a second light (though it needs to run on separate batteries to the main light). Unless your battery or lights fail catastrophically you must race with at least one light on. Please check up on your lights before the event and make sure they’re fully charged. There will be a charging station on site, but remember that many batteries take a day to charge fully from flat. Registration: All riders must sign on with registration before 1145 on the day of the race. You will get your number and timing chip at this time. All riders must be 16 years of age or older, or 18 years of age or over in the Solo category. The Event Organiser must receive a parental consent form (which is documented, signed and dated) for those riders who are under 18. Camping: Camping is free for competitors and supporters on site. There will be toilets on site. The Campsite opens 0800 on Friday. We’d like to thank you in advance for keeping the farm tidy and encourage you to take your rubbish home or use the rubbish collection area and bins on site. Start: The Race will start at 1300 on Friday, 23 March 2018. Retiring: If a rider drops out of your team, please tell the start/finish marshals so they can be struck off the register. Remember that your team can’t get a result unless everyone has raced a minimum of three (3) laps. This excludes serious injury. Finishing: Official Timings for End of Races 6 hours Race – 1900 hours on Friday, 23 March 2018. 12 hours Race – 0100 hours on Saturday, 24 March 2018. 24 hours Race – 1300 hours on Saturday, 24 March 2018. Riders still out on the course at that time must finish their lap before the individual, pairs or team’s total laps can be counted. The Winner for each of the 4 No. Race Categories will be the one that completes the most laps in the shortest time. Results will be as number of laps, plus time taken to finish after 1300. Riders crossing the line after this time will be deemed to have completed the 24 hours and the race is over, until next year!
