The event is coming up in a few weeks. Does anyone know how much climbining it is on the 93 mile and 50 mile routes. The reason I ask is that on the 93 miler when I import the GPX data into MMR its says 3800ft, but Bikely says 5177ft (1577m).

I want to do the 93 mile route, but am not sure if my legs are up to that much yet as my training hasn't gone to plan.

    The .gpx in bikehike.co.uk gives it as 1885 m, and the same route plotted manually is 1801 m, so I question how accurate the elevation calculations are.

    There are some 'nice' hills on the route: Brill, Whiteleaf, Dunsmore, The Hale, The Crong, Ivinghoe and Dagnall in that order are the main ones. The Aylesbury vale, although flat/gently undulating can be tough if you get a headwind.
