I found this wonderful post on the TRC forum. Some good news...
Something else to keep in mind is the access for the watering stations along the way. The route we will be taking is litterally in the middle of nowhere, and the organizers and volunteers do a great job of making sure that we have aid stations and medics where we really need them. On average they will be every 30kms or so, which means anywhere from 1-3hours apart. They are usually at the start of the long climbs and are really a sight for sore eyes.
The transrockies is an amazingly well organized event that shows you what can be done through hard work and a love of mountain biking. You will be treated to the best of Canadian hospitality surrounded by Natures most spectacular sights, wildlife, mountains, waterfalls and rivers. You will be well fed, hydrated and entertained. You will have hot running water 50miles from the closest municiple water source. You will have the ability to purchase a massage (cash only) have your bike fixed (they give credit) or even buy a burger or cold beer while you wait for dinner. Every night, after riding well marked trails, you will be surrounded by hundreds of your friends to watch video and stills of the events of the day. You are going to be given the opportunity to make this the time of your life. That is why so many of us do this every year. For one I can't wait and I look forward to the surprises that the route organizers have in store for us.
