Stage 5
“St Ronans”
Stage 5: Teams will be donning their wetsuits and canyonning, jumping and abseiling through St Ronans Well before they can depart on Stage 6. A great chance for some fun and to wash some of the muck and dust that has accumulated over the past two days racing. Teams are permitted to traverse the canyon at night too. The next stage, however, is dark zoned so they will take that fact into consideration when deciding when to begin. Get it done and sleep or wait till just before the dark zone opens and join them up? This may be the point where some teams elect to get some decent sleep after a tough couple of days with lots of climb in the legs already. This stage should make for some spectacular media output!
