Changes on the venue have been made after the Mountain Bike test event as well as response and feedback of riders and International Federation. Parts of this course will be widen after offering the athletes enough opportunities to pass. On the other hand, lots of new features are also added to improve the technical difficulty of the course.
After the extension of mail climb, riders will cover climbing of approximately 172 metres. Debbie Jevans, LOCOG Director of Sport stated, “These changes to the course have been implemented after feedback from the elite athletes following the test event and from conversations with the UCI. We are confident that the London 2012 course remains one of the most technically challenging courses at an Olympic Games, whilst we have ensured that it is as competitive as it can be by increasing the number of places where competitors can pass each other.”
