Less than a week until the start of the 3rd edition of the eMTB Xperience Triad.
The base camp of the event will be set up on the Avrig Valley, at the Brandoșa Tourist Complex. We encourage participants to come with a stand and staff that can help them during the 3 days of competition. The perfect technical condition of the bike is essential for a successful competition. We will provide participants with a power connection and a bicycle washing area. The eMTB Xperience triad is not an easy competition, even if the bikes are electrically assisted. On the contrary. From a physical point of view it will be very demanding and there will be practically 3 days of fire. There may be sections where you will need to push the bike, so make sure you know how to use the “walk assist” function. Also, most of the special stages take place on very technical routes, where the bike’s control skills will play a very important role. It is possible that even on the descent you will have areas that you will prefer to do on foot. Safety first! And in this we will mark the routes as best we can, but the competition could also have a navigation component at certain times, either because of the weather in the alpine gap area, or in areas where the markings are rarer, the route being clear but needing a confirmation that gives you confidence. That is why it is mandatory to have a GPS device with which to track the route. Intersections will be well marked, especially downhill speed ones. We will have portions of alpine hollows and orientation in fog in these areas can be difficult. This is one of the main reasons why the GPS device is mandatory. The tracks will be provided by us to each registered competitor. The routes are not secret, at least for this edition. We encourage participants to make their recognition in order to enjoy them as much as possible during the competition. After completing your registration, you can request your tracks by emailing us at info@procycling.ro. We recommend bicycles with a minimum 625 Wh battery in good condition. Otherwise you will have to be very careful with battery management, especially on Saturdays. Also, the charger you come with should be at least 4A. All bikes must be of the “pedelec” type, i.e. the electric assist only comes into action when the rider is pedaling. Electrical assistance must be limited to a speed of 25 km/h according to regulations in Europe. A competitor can use 2 batteries provided they leave with them from the start and carry them throughout the day. The bikes can and will be checked by us at any time and by any method during the 3 days. Follow our website and Facebook page to keep up to date with the latest news and if something is not clear do not hesitate to ask us for details. In the meantime, we make sure that the routes you will race on are as expected. Good luck giving!
