The first 5 km along Bucketts Road sees over 130 competitors pushing themselves to stay with the front pack who set a furious pace to get to the mountain section first.
The next 10-12 km is the most gruelling section of the bike leg with many steep sections and some of those sections too steep for some athletes to stay on the bike.
Down the other side and back onto the main road and into Rocky Crossing transition area where the bike is left.
