I have done several races in the states & in europe. I am a MOP who uses the races for a great vacation with family. Even thought they cannot stand me until the end of the race. Even then it is touch and go until I chill out.
I find that the races in europe are much more competitive, spectator friendly, more competitive. In general a much more exciting & enjoyable experience.
Definelty better food at the finish line & the races do not run out of coke, red bull etc like IMLP for the last 2 years…
If you have been overseas, what was your experience?
I plan on only racing outside of North America. Brazil next year if I feel in the mood.
