RACE ROUTE
The race will end when the first rider completes the full course of 100km.
All other riders shall complete the lap they are riding when the first rider finishes.
All places will be decided based on laps completed in the fastest time.
The route will be marked with chalk and caution tape.
When marked with caution tape – we will put three pieces on the side of the track where a turn in that direction is imminent, and then several pieces of tape at and after the turn.
Riders will be advised to look ahead for the next piece of marker tape and NOT to look at their front wheel.
Marking long race routes like this is extremely hard and time consuming. Lost and grumbling riders are almost guaranteed. As usual, we will do our best to ensure this does not happen!
RACE NUTRITION / LUNCH
Although we have planned water, electrolyte and food enroute we would recommend thinking about your basic hydration and food for the race! Thats one of the exciting things about racing a 100km race – planning food and water.
AFTER RACE – IndiGEO will be sponsoring lunch at Our Native Village for everyone attempting the 100kms! Thanks IndiGeo.

WHAT I LOVE ABOUT CYCLING
I love riding my bike. Whether it’s a simple commute, a high-intensity road race, a jaw-grinding brevet, fixie rides thru packed Indian city or a kick-ass technical single track – I love it all. Apart from riding bicycles, I love being all geeky and know everything there is to know about bicycles, technology, bike fit, and service.
I started BUMSONTHESADDLE to share this passion for cycling.
DISCIPLINE: Partial towards MOUNTAIN BIKING but love it all
CURRENT BIKE(S): Specialized Rockhopper, Specialized Tarmac, Pure Cycles Original
DREAM BIKE: S-Works Epic HT & S-Work Roubaix
OTHER PASSIONS: Technology, Photography, Baking, Travel, and Reading
