Done two 70s'. Its really a 65. Its flat and sandy (very muddy after rain) with too many riders. Not much scenery. Will be a while before I do another one.

On numerous occasions & would recommend. A good test of your fitness as you work virtually all the way. Not technical apart from a few sand patches and a rocky downhill.
