Situation:
o the penny farthing rider has never ridden up, or trained on, XMNT with the high-wheel bicycle; with an estimated speed of 7.5 miles per hour, it will take 40 minutes to complete the five-mile climb - If He Makes It, therefore, he gets a 20-minute handicap leaving at 6:40 a.m.
o the fastest Chaser/Racers are expected to complete the climb in less than 20 minutes, therefore they start at 7:00 a.m.
Rules:
o Route: Chaser/Racers turn right from the parking lot onto Resler, then right onto the XMNT access road, once access road merges with XMNT road, stay to the right in the bike lane at all times
