I was looking over the profiles for this year’s ride and noticed that they changed the total number of feet of climbing for the 100 mile route. Last year they wrote that it was over 8000 feet. This year it shows 4337' of climbing but the course map looks the same. The battery in my garmin 305 died at 73 miles into the 100 and had recorded 5758' of climbing. Anyone know if the route was changed?
