The Salzkammergut Trophy race is Austria's biggest one day marathon with participants from 37 nations and 7 different race distances through the UNESCO world cultural heritage region Hallstatt-Dachstein-Salzkammergut. I had signed up for the long loop with 212km and 7000hm of climbing and descending...I decided that this long race deserved a proper long write up...long time coming too ! Feck writing it up took way longer than the race...stick to riding my bike in future ..LOL
