From the Wombat 100k event last year (different organizers), see their map below of their 50km course; Distillery starts at point #11 and finsihes at point #4. Point #4 is close to the new Wombat Classics Food/Drink Station on Burnt Mill Road.I haven't ridden there before. Which one's Distillery?
Until you hit 20 posts its on a moderated basis, takes a few days and i noticed it too but the admins will get to approving them, once you hit 20 its all good.Not sure what is going on. Posted replies to your questions about 7 hours ago. Don't know why they haven't shown up.

Thanks Surveyorcam. They are showing up now, and exactly what I wanted to know. I'll try to get out there for a ride in the next few weeks to see how doable it is. I'm not sure I'm a racer.......actually, I'm pretty sure I'm not a racer, but this event looks like something I could get on board for.Until you hit 20 posts its on a moderated basis, takes a few days and i noticed it too but the admins will get to approving them, once you hit 20 its all good.
Racer or not I think it is a pretty approachable course. There is a lot of single track which will make it quite tiring. But there's not that much climbing in it and the technical difficulty is quite low. You can get support at the food stop 3 times during the race if you completely run out of steam, it's easy enough to pull the pin and get back to the start finish area on the roads. The riding is a bit old school, barely a switchback or a berm in sight and plenty of ruts and roots to test your ability at picking a line. Hope that helps.Thanks Surveyorcam.

I understand that posts are moderated, but its a PITA then they then show up in the thread stream where they were originally written. If Surveyorcam hadn't posted his comment, I probably wouldn't have gone back a page to see what he'd written. Maybe now would be a good time to make another five or six posts?
It's such a solid 5km, it is in fact closer to 8km.race start is a gentleman's time of 11, youll have heaps of time to get the train: maybe you should just ride the feeway as a 75km warm up?
from the station its a solid 5km out to the race venue with a bit of climbing, perfect warm-up
carry a tent in case its an overnight job.:lol:thank's for the reply Daniel - I'll let the boys know :thumb:
