Sure there is world cup circuits like that, the odd tree maybe but not what you would call singletrack. WC in spain is in an open park.

Don't think lack of trees or mountains is an issue.  Excellent course, savage speed and great to be able to see other racers.  Last year was great.

Yea i agree....this course is great but not to be underestimated.... its a tough race..!

And not a huge step to masters for this one....3 laps for sports and 4 for masters (as last year)

There was one really mucky part last year in the grassy part...it was terrible and you had to push the bike through the mud... i hope they cut that out or filled it in..! the rest of the course is rock solid..!!

I think its a really good race...fast and very flowy...... I like that all the courses are slightly different, i wouldn't want them all to be like this but as one round its class !
