the coles and tavern loops would be interesting. I only ever ride the camel farm. So it would be good to try something new.

Night ride would also be great. is the sand to simulate the beach, or the sand we got on the new addition to day 2 in last years event.

In 3 years I reckon I have actually ridden maybe 500m of beach. But I wont be bothering with training for pushing my bike up the beach.

I see on they are saying they will reduce day 2 on the C2C website. the distance wasn’t so much the issue, it was more psychological in that we all had it in our head we were only doing 66km instead of the 74km garmin said we actually did. So I wonder if they will remove those sandy sections or some of the other fire trails. I was running 2.3 inch tyres so i was floating over that soft sand anyway (and laughing at my mate with his skinny 1.8 mud tyres).
