The length of the Blue route is 30 kilometers and has a positive level difference of about 450 meters.
The participants who opt for this route will start on Sunday, April 30, at 11:00 in the center of Avrig, along with the competitors who will participate on the yellow route. The first kilometer, until the exit of the city, will be covered in neutralized regime and the official start of the competition will be given on the go.
Shortly after the start, the competitors will also meet with the first climb car has about 2 kilometers. A veiled portion follows, with a single trail drawn on the area we call “Savannah.” At kilometer 6 the blue path is separated from the yellow trail. At this point the competitors on the blue route will turn left while the competitors on the yellow route will go straight ahead.
At the end of the Savannah, about kilometer 9.5, we have a somewhat more difficult descent at the end of which a river will be crossed.
Next comes the first power point at kilometer 10.5. At this point the competitors need to be a little more careful because immediately after the power point there is an intersection where the blue route goes forward while to the left will take the competitors from the black route.
The next 9 kilometers travel one of the most beautiful route segments of the AVRIG MTB Triad. At the end of the descent we have the second power point, at kilometer 19.5.
The last part of the route no longer presents major difficulties, either physically or technically. The only challenges are the crossings through the river from kilometer 22 and 26.5.
Areas that take place on public roads must be traveled carefully and in compliance with traffic rules. The route crosses 2 paved county roads, at kilometer 25.5 and 27.5. These crossings are secured by route referees together with road service agents, but competitors must insure themselves before crossing.
You can find the map, profile and gpx file of the route in the “Routes” section.
Increase the pedaling!
