I was told yesterday that the vineman course is very prone to flats. The first 10 miles rough roads and the course has many thorns…Any truth to this ?
I did the full in 2003, and rode the course a number of time in the months preceeding. Never once got a flat. I’m doing the Full in August, hope my luck holds.
There are a few rough sections of road, but nothing stands out a being a potential cause of a flat…no more than on any other road(s).
Thanks See Ya There!!
Agree with Jar…some of the roads are a bit rough, but nothing truly out of the ordinary.
There are some goatheads (thorns) in the early spring, but flats shouldn’t be an issue. No more than any normal race.
Been training hard?
Very! My times have been the best ever. Looking forward meeting you. Feel awkward about your offer though.Still O.K… By the way,whats the best way to ship my bike. Thinking it may be better to ship from shop to shop instead of taking on the plane. Any advice? Thanks Kenney
