Lollipop course

jimgerweckMember

Set to measure an out-loop-back ("lollipop") course this weekend. The organizers want the start/finish to be the same. My plan is as follows:

Start at a common point just outside the loop, measure the loop, determine its length and calculate additional required distance.

Measure half that figure to the S/F.

Calculate splits, measure back on the out-back portion to common point.

Ride loop 2nd time, marking any additional splits.

Adjust S/F based on SOSS.

Jim,

After you arrive at the S/F the first time, calculate splits and ride the whole course from start to finish. Take a count at the common point before and after doing the loop - it may come in handy and won't significantly add work.

No need to make the loop a separate measurement.
