The 2014 season of the awesome Bangalore Bicycle Championships is going with a Nandi Epic 100km
Road Race on NH-7 Bangalore - Hydrabad Highway.
Get your race face on people and get ready for a rocking at the Bangalore
Bicycle Championships.
PRE-RACE DETAILS
The race will start at 7am. Get to the venue at 6-6:15am. Make sure you pre-register
and digitally sign your indemnity form online, so you just have to collect your
bib numbers on race day. The start will be a little past the Airport toll
gate and finish will be a Nandi Hill Gate.
Start Location
Race HQ is 3 km from the airport toll gate. Take a U-turn when you see the Cafe Coffee Day and HP
petrol bunk on the opposite side on the highway where bib collection, pre-race briefing and staging
will take place. Cars can be parked in the service lane.
Course Description : THE WAY OUT
The race rolls north on NH-7, past a couple intersections that will be marshaled. After 37 km of
rolling terrain, some really long flyovers, exposed highway, and south-westerly crosswinds to deal
with, the race "descends" 8 km, on straight and fast highway, to the U-turn point. The U-turn will
be marshaled and will have a neutral feed station.
Course Description : THE WAY BACK
The first challenge of the course is the 8 km of highway climbs from the U-turn point. Once that is
behind you, the race continues to go south until the marshaled right-hander that has you crossing
the highway and put riders on the approach to Nandi. Here, you have to deal with a block headwind,
a railway crossing, a series of low speed humps and a false-flat all the way to the base of
the climb.
Course Description : THE EPIC CLIMB
Nandi Hills is a double headed climb. The total climb is 7 km at around 5%. The first 4 km is the
shallower bit to a saddle point where you switch from Nandi I to Nandi II. The last 3 km to the
summit of Nandi II is steeper, includes some steep switchbacks and kicks to the finish!
