STAGE 13 TRACKING

STAGE 13: VILLA CARLOS PAZ > ROSARIO

Connection 519km | Special Stage 180km | Total 699km

COURSE OVERVIEW

Aspiring winners will certainly be those who find the 180km of the day’s special section the most difficult, designed with twisty, undulating routes, faster sandy and rocky sections… leading to significant levels of stress. For most of the others, the 699km to be covered before reaching the podium in Rosario will be a relief. To be enjoyed without moderation…

The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

There does not seem to be that many spectators at the podium.

I appreciate the hospitality here. I've 'known' Robby by his racing against Wally Dallenbach Jr. many years ago.

Now, could somebody explain this mess?? What is a 'special stage'? Are the green sections 55mph highways? I've got the timing thing, I rode enduro many decades ago, but the maps have me confused and I don't know what is racing and what is just riding along.
