The race starts on Monday with the first rider starting at 0900hrs CET, and riders departing every minute after, with my departure time at 0940hrs.
The organisers are, right now, setting up the starting headquarters and will be distributing these spot trackers, which you can use to follow me on http://race.blackblox.si/hardcro
There are gaps in the start times, greater than a minute, as the original number of people who entered, at over a hundred, has diminished over time, especially in recent weeks, as they drop out (for whatever reason), and now the start list is only 45 riders, including one lady, and no other Brits (there were four at one point!). A great shame so many people have pulled out - the more the merrier.
I'll be flying to Dubrovnik, tomorrow afternoon (Saturday 18th), and getting a taxi to the same village as the starting headquarters, Molunat, close to the dramatically scenic start point of Prevlaka:
At 0940hrs CET I'll be starting my adventure around Croatia!
