BC EPIC 1000 Westbound Bikepacking Race (Round 2) Act I

Описание: BC EPIC 1000 Westbound Bikepacking Race (Round 2) Act I

Ymir to Eholt Summit:

I must be a glutton for punishment because it's been two months, and I'm going to give the BC Epic Bikepacking Racecourse and attempt riding westbound as a time trial.

Going west is known to be slower due to the long gradual climbs which suck up the time, and a few rough sections that are just plain old tough going in that direction.

I've broken this into "sleep" sections and Act I is the first push from Fernie to Yimr, about 345km.
