In case you want it in words, too...
From Cherry Ridge you will go down the Old Coal dirt road. In less then 2/10 mile you will turn left onto a "not so obvious" single track. This will fork right away and you want to go to the right (effectively paralleling Old Coal). Follow this trail until it comes out on Old Coal and turn left onto it. Follow OC across the gas line and start climbing up until you reach the intersection with Turkey Ridge trail. Turn right and follow Turkey Ridge for about 0.9 mile and turn sharply left onto Pines.

I counted 257,936...in the parking lot. I lost count after that.
Lots a peeps at cherry ridge lot this morning. I headed out for loop of race course with Utah, Mandell and Oldock, the other guys went to ride the fun trails.
The first 3rd up to porcupine is good but it seemed like a lot of fire road after that. It is definetly more tame then BS50, which is good, since I'm not use to racing 30 miles.

Just do it, don't be such a pansy

This is a very helpful file. Looking at HR and Power it doesn't seem you pushed too hard (or are just smooth as butter). 15 miles in 2:30 (2:04 moving). 6.2mph. I'm sure the averages are low because it seems there was some stoppage, but no extreme heart rates or power. Is the whole course more or less rideable? How does it compare to Ringwood and Allamuchy. Just hoping I don't have to walk a bunch. Doing the 25km version, so that should help. So many questions.
Overall it's not as technical, however it's roughly a 15 mile loop, you will encounter some tech but the ratio of tech to miles is lower then Ringwood and Mooch.
Can you give me a ratio of tech to miles using π?
ok im in...despite what @David Taylor says, this is like super duper ultra endurance for me. Anything over 1 episode of Seinfeld while on the trainer I consider endurance.
π x π = -2
