The 2024 35klm Classic event was exceptional well organised event, a big thank you to all the volunteers, There was a group of 4 out front that worked well together although split during the hill climb, For my 1hr. 27min. for the 35klm, very pleased we were passed only by one electric bike during our hill climb and enjoyed a dry windows of 2 hrs giving a dry fast ride. Now wait for the official results. Ross
