For this event preview, James and Brodie are joined by special guest Ben Burgess. Ben raced in the 100 mile event last year and was placed 2nd when the dust settled, and has a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm about this event!
We preview the overall event and the special, yet demanding conditions in which it is held, diving in deep to the 50km and 100 mile fields.
Looking forward to what will no doubt be an epic 4 days of racing, hopefully a little cooler this year!
