Going Long and Hard.

id assume anyone who signed up for this knew this was in the route but yeah F that 'cause Gators.

Gators, American crocs, cottonmouths, snapping turtles, Burmese pythons, leeches; I mean the list to NOT get in that water is a loooooooong one, let's be honest. 🥴

That water crossing would've resulted in a DNF for me. Screw that!!!!

I was looking at this race last year and when I read "wading streams with crocodiles" I moved on 🙂

curious what bike device you use and how do you keep it all saved as one long ride? pause, sleep mode?

As Sven said, Karoo3. Didn’t plug it in until the last day, it’ll last 30+ hours in Battery Saver Mode. I don't even power it off. Only downside I ran into was zooming in enough to stay on trail through Santos. It’s like Spaghetti in there and it’s pretty easy to get turned around.

These were all the reasons I signed up 😂

Outside of those it’s literally the Jersey Devil Route for 400 miles. Like I’m talking zero difference in terrain outside of a few sections with Palm Trees. Croome(?) was super fun though. Like Allaire but with 6-Mile flow for 35 miles.
