The convoy of the Mongolia Bike Challenge is forced to a new stop. After the cancellation of the third stage, caused by a sand storm, today the 92 bikers of this adventure at the boundaries of reality are stopped from an heavy snowfall.
Today all the athletes understand the meaning of the slogan “10 stages in 10 different worlds”. In a week of race the Mongolia Bike Challenge has already offered deserts, big valleys, mountain passes extremely hard and now wide snowed expanses. An adventure worth to be remembered. The camp wakes up under a thin but compact white blanket in a strong cold. After meetings and assessments, the race direction decides to delete the stage for safety reasons. The minimum conditions for the bikers safety are not guaranteed in the deep down-hill, at the two mountain passes of the today’s stage. Beside, you would have to cross three wide rivers, at a very low temperature; the risk of hypothermia for the bikers’ feet is too much high.
The MBC logistic team starts again. All the luggage, the bikes and the bikers are uploaded on the vehicles. The long train starts for a long trip, through the wide snowed expanses in an enchanting landscape. Some difficulties waging rivers don’t prevent MBC to reach the target of Urd Tamir. The camp is installed at a river’s bank, in a wonderful flat valley, dotted of wild horses and yaks. The last enchanting site for the mobile camps of the Mongolia Bike Challenge 2010.
