Eagleman - how long was bike course?

My usually very accurate Avocet 45tt had 55.6, and my Polar s710i had 56.2.

My bike puter had it at 55.9 miles. I got a bit screwed up whtn I passed the 50 mile sign at about 52.5, but I think some one was having a little fun moving the signs around.

Peace,

The course markings were definitely off. I didn’t mind it on the bike, but it threw me for a loop on the run. It was nice to open with a 6:05 and close with a 5:38, but the 8:16 at mile 7 had me concerned.

The mile markers on the bike course were wacky. The ones painted on the ground seemed accurate but the signs were way off. I passed the 40 or 45 mile mark painted on the ground then saw the same distance on a sign 5 minutes later.

The middle miles of the run were long, especially mile 7. That or I dropped down from 7:45 to a 10:00 mile and then magically picked it back up.

The overall distances seemed right, just not the splits.
