Stage 7
"Nydia Archers"
Teams who make it inside the time cut off are now faced with a technical ride along the Nydia and Archers tracks towards Elaine Bay. This route will provide some challenging Grade 4+ riding for those who have already been racing for many days. Concentration paramount. There is also a decent amount of up and down for those with tired legs. Glimpses of the Sounds will be found as the teams get into the route and a taste of what is to come on the penultimate stage.
