Don't know what Perimeter and Long will be like.

If you are planning on Duck Holes and Centre then the first hill just past the gate has lots of loose rock. The rest as Paul said is surprisingly good. Don't forget the 7th or 8th waterbar on the long downhill has a washed out rut on the approach side.

Have Fun

Ah... the problem with your altitude data is that it's GPS sourced and not from a barometric altimeter. Although a GPS is good for finding it's location, they are not the best with altitude.

MB says you've got an eTrex, which doesn't have the SiRFstar III chipset... in the trees other chipsets sometimes can't keep a very good lock and you end up with spurious data, hence your erratic speed!

No, really, I was going that fast

LOL... see... you should save yourself for those last few hills Eye-wink

I'll leave all that strategic "save yourself" stuff for when I'm 40.

Although a mojo often refers to a small good luck charm of sorts attached to your bike,

You must find your mojo or have it given to you
