Spokebender 50

Someone want to share their gpx for last year’s Spokebender 50 with me? I realize that it won’t be the exact same course but it would be nice to see what to expect. Thanks!

Sent you a DM.

The course is different this year. But not easier.

Good luck.

Thanks! I just thought it would be good idea to at least familiarize myself with the various sections at some point beforehand.

Pretty much. Looking like they don’t leave anything out. I’m up for an adventure considering I haven’t ridden ww in years.

What’s that trail in the center going straight up? Is that the access road?

You can see Xc connector/Dipsy Doodle/ Scott x on Trail Forks if you select the Nordic map option instead of MTB.

Are you replying to my yes/no question? Wuts trailforks?

That’s Chickadee. I looked on google maps and it seems to have a road on it.

Thanks, not really interested in downloading an app. Just want to know if that section of the course is all access road or trail.

Cool thanks, I’ve biked up the road before. Just curious if that is what it was or not.

Chicadee.

How greasy do the trails get if it rains? Asking for a friend.

Pretty greasy. Lots of roots.

Ugh
