80KM ride For Aric

I like your route Aric, but I think you can't have two way traffic on fast trail.  This route takes out the up traffic on Bobcat by sending people back out to station flats before connecting with Snagmore. Safer, and Station Flats is a feed station. The only thing that I would change about the map I created is that after riders come into the West Bragg parking lot the first time (off of boundary ridge) I would not send them up Bragging Rights to get to Merlin as there could be faster racers coming down the "last rip" having comleted Long Distance. I would instead route out the West Road to the west side of Telephone loop to where it reconnects with Bragging rights.  This would reduce the same danger that you had on bobcat.
