Route Description
This route begins with a 1.2km lead-in from the start pens to the Champion’s Sprint banner. Once the official lap begins you can enjoy a bit of flat road and even downhill for the first 800 meters of the lap before the road turns left and it’s time to climb!
You’ve got a tough, straight 7% ramp to tackle – the longest climb on this course – and the official Clyde Kicker Reverse KQOM hasn’t even begun yet!
Turn left at the top of the ramp, and the road levels out and even goes downhill as you cross the KQOM start line. Then you’ve got a pitchy 600 meters to the Clyde Kicker Reverse banner before descending fast to the 400 meters of grinding false flat that takes you to the finish line.
