Does the 10 Under the Ben race run on the posted route?

Just wondered... I rode the 10 Under course when I was up at Fort William, and, well, it's rotten really 
Nice bit between the car parts, Nessie's ace, the rest is just endless fireroads and dull singletrack. FIREROAD DESCENDING, AAAARRGH! I was wondering, on the race days do they use the same route or are there diversions/extras? I saw loads of wee tempting trailheads but didn't have time to explore... Just that a mate of mine is asking if I want to race there next year and in all honesty, I'd rather eat my own head than ride the full route again when there's the nevis red and worlds XC routes there

The midges are bloody awful the camp site is next to a small stream
Its your call, if you would like to pre ride the 2011 route then please get in touch maps are normally made available 2 weeks prior to event to reduce erosion on natural sections.
Shame about Nessie though, what a brilliant bit of trail that is. Nothing says fun quite like catch fences and crashmats
