Does anyone know the course itself well enough to describe it from the park map or a link to it specifically?
or
Is anyone willing and available Tues or Thurs after work to give a tour?
Thanks.
 
Brian of Team Bulldog has a habit of staying silent about the race course. Don't expect much official word. The route often changes from year to year.

The course will be marked the evening before the race and you can show up early to pre-ride. That's how us old-schoolers like it. 😉

Thanks for the info... I guess that does make it more of a challenge then.
 
You can always show up to the TM tomorrow night and see what trails they're trimming back. Or you can find a GPS link of last year's course and ride it. While race day may change this isn't like Wawayanda nor Ringwood where the course can too different on the day of the race. Rumor has it the course is the same. But I've seen courses change on race day morning so you never know.
 
John, im planning on taking a ride over there tomorrow night. I know last years course very well. However, after talking to some of my friends who ride for the bulldogs, they said the course will be changed this year. No idea how they are planning to change it. But there are only so many trails at KVSP, so if you ran last years course, you would have a good idea about the terrain.
 
I can't wait for the race this Sunday. The weather has been great so the course should be awesome.

Goodale road parking lot. I will probably not be there until the same time. However, I am planning on helping out with TM tomorrow night.
 
They really need to throw in some of the section across the driveway from the regular parking lot. Those slate hills, that really scenic route across the peak, and that death hill are really awesome. All of my favorite parts of KT are left out 🙁

I have asked about that, they can't do it for a couple of reasons. I agree though, some of the best parts of the park are over there.

That is true. However my bulldog friends have told me that the main reason is that whoever is in charge will not allow racing on that side of the park. No idea why, etc.. But that is the answer I always hear first when I ask.
