Ride Mileage
Hi,
I just looked at the RWGPS map and cue sheet. The section along the Cedar River trail has two U turns, adding about 3.6 miles. Assuming we are not actually going to do that, the ride length will be around 36 miles.
Hope to be there, as long as it's dry.
Updated RWGPS
There are no U-turns on the CRT, the ride is 36 miles and 1430 feet elevation.
I was in this area and I know
I was in this area and I know that there was created a pistol control. This race is closed for the transport of weapons and drugs. I recently read about it in an educational resource
https://gradesfixer.com/free-essay-examples/gun-control/ that provides creative information. Your site can help people learn about the conditions of movement.
