- cpncrunch 12y agoIt adds 30 hours at 3mph. 63 hours total.
- trhway 12y agoactually there are 60000ft of ascent and 60000ft of descent in that race. With steep and or bad condition of descents (check the photos from the links others posted), you need to apply the rule (at least partially) to descents too. Thus we come almost all the way to 90hrs.
