To complete Rooted Secrets, we set a time limit of 120h. Everyone gets a GPS device. Please keep an eye on the device's battery. And whoever arrives first, well, arrives first. :)
If you miss the deadline, you'll get a DNF. But no stress! You can still keep riding, just return the tracker to us and enjoy the tour.
Keep nature clean.. We're not a mobile garbage collection.
Leave your sleeping spots as you found them. Or even a little nicer. ;)
