Max posted a route profile on FB I'll copy it up here later, there are some climbs that should be noted :'(
75k and >2000m climbing, but over two laps which I must say I prefer than one big loop.

Congrats to Jim who is this years new Masters Champ. Delighted for him.!! Not easy to get a national title, so well deserved.! :)
Also another couple of great results, Paul C was 3rd place in Experts and Ryan Dunne was 3rd place in the support race. Well done guys and to everyone else who raced. I have no other results at present.

Great stuff from Jim today on what I thought was a really tough course, lots of fast single track but one serious techy climb that also had to be done twice and nearly made my physically sick along with bringing a tear to the eye.
Well done to everyone else who made the trip up, Great venue and well run race by Summit MTB.

Well done Champion Jim ..fantastic stuff ! Well done Paul and Ryan too ..great results ! A really well organized race....dnf'd myself after a mechanical but wasn't going g8 so not overly disappointed !

Ah you would have loved that torture Ger ;)

A cold stopped me from doing it, half glad I didn't get to do it.

What a day yesterday.
As Davy said it was a really tough race monster climbs and not much let up on descents. Got a good start and kept it steady enough after that, had plenty of luck getting through the day with no incidents, the bike was running brilliantly. Very happy
-
Well done lads great results and fair play for all that managed to complete, look like a serious ball breaker
-
Fair play to all for putting themselves through that pain. Serious nut jobs!!
-
Tough day with fatigue setting in on lap 1. Kids had bug and spread the luv (say no more). Glad I quit after lap one. Great Honda dealer beside forest entrance if anyone looking. Had a noisy to kill time.
Great results by IMBRC finishers especially Ryan who fell back to 5th but reclaimed podium.
'Champ' needs to show that jersey some respect & head to swiss epic nxt year with top gun riders.
Savage result.
