Bike course (RUN ADDED)


Here's the map again with run course for Sunday's session added. Only proposed at the moment so any feedback let me know.
As mentioned in an earlier post, instead of going to Shropshire Tri on 10th June, I'm planning on doing an Olmypic distance training session.

Here's the 40km bike course. My apologies for the school-boy graphics but I don't have the time to muck around with a fancy-pants paint program!

Bike Route:

Start in transition at north of Mooragh Park Lake. Head out to Bride on A10. Turn right at Bride Church to Point of Ayre on A16. There will be a turn in the road, it's just after the 90 degree left hand corner after Cranstal, where a lay-by (with stone walling) at the road side appears. Head back to Bride same way. Go right at Church and follow A10 all the way to Ballaugh Cronk. Left at the Cronk back towards Ramsey on A13. When you reach Richmond Road turn left. Turn left when you reach Andreas Road (A9) then right back on to A10 towards the Grand Island Hotel. Turn right just before Grand Island and head back to transition at Mooragh. This should be 40km!!

Run Route:
Head out toward Bride on same course as bike. Turn left when you get to Ballacorey road. The road ahead will split into two - take the right fork (stay on Ballacorey). When you get to Ramsey-Andreas road (A9), turn left back towards Ramsey. Turn left at Bride Road junction and head toward Grand Island. Turn right down onto to prom and through to Finish which will be on the prom in line with the boat ramp opposite the junction that leads to the Mooragh Park car Park.

Any thoughts on the above, email me manxtriboy@hotmail.com
