[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]This year the competition dedicated to electrically assisted bicycles (eMTB) changes radically.<\/p>\n

The routes are much more technical and the competition time will be given by accumulating the times from 2 timed special stages.<\/p>\n

The start of the first stage will be 10 km from Avrig. The way to the starting point is on the paved road DJ 105F towards Poiana Neam\u021bului. Competitors can get there either by bicycle (recommended as a warm-up), 8 km being on the new bicycle path on the Avrig Valley, or by car. In case they go by car and want to leave it there until later, the parking area is 1 km further.<\/p>\n

The first timed stage is almost 7km, it is mostly uphill with a descent of 1.5km at the end steep and very technical. It is the stage that will certainly pose big problems for those who consider that an e-bike is just a mountain bike on which you put less effort :-).<\/p>\n

The start of this first stage will be given starting at 10:00, in groups of 4 riders, with a difference of 1 minute. The starting list will be published after the closing of registrations.<\/p>\n

An 11 km connecting segment follows, partly on a forestry road, partly on a single track, but overall a segment without any problems for e-bikes. The maximum time you need to spend on this segment is 1 hour. For every extra minute you will be penalized with 10 seconds. Somewhere in the middle of this connection segment you also have a feeding point, a second point being right at the start of the last timed race.<\/p>\n

It is important to evaluate the parameters of the entire route and to make a correct battery management, in relation to capacity, weight and your level of preparation.<\/p>\n

The second timed stage is just over 14 km long and is mostly downhill. The start is given individually, at least 1 minute apart, depending on the order in which you arrive at the starting point. The route is common with other Triada MTB Avrig races, so it is possible to catch competitors from the Red or Blue routes. Carefully and respectfully manage the situations in which you have to pass.<\/p>\n

This race ends with a beautiful descent to the former M\u00e2r\u0219a plant where the clock will stop. You will also find a last refreshment point there, and further to the starting area you can follow the route marked by the competition (recommended) or you can leave the route after about 2km and continue on the M\u00e2r\u0219a \u2013 Avrig bike lane. If you choose the 2nd option, you have the obligation to remove the competition number from the bike.<\/p>\n

The entire route, timed stages plus connecting segments, looks like this:<\/p>\n
