After setting the fastest known time for the Trans Cambrian Way (East to West) in 2020, the time was beaten by a significant amount in early April 2021, so I decided to have another crack with changes made to the bike used and also the plan for fuel/resupply.
The full route is 168km and above 4000m climbing. Over 50% is off-road, although not much significantly technical. The route was originally designed by IMBA in the mid-2000s as a 3-day mountain bike route.
