Just seen that the start lists for WMOC have been reissued and are very different, not just the odd alteration.
Together with delayed publication of final Bulletin "due to a technical problem" rather worrying!

Re: WMOC 2018
Yeah my start time and the wifes are now 5 hours apaprt instead of two and the opposite way around!
Don't know about the technical issue but there was an issue with the pdf for the bulletin 2 - I couldn't get it to print properly landscape or portrait - kept missing pages - I did send them an email....

Re: WMOC 2018
The pagination seems not to be set up for booklet printing. I think I'll wait until I get the official printed version when I get to Copenhagen ...

Re: WMOC 2018
It printed OK for me, 2 pages to a sheet on each side, but not as a booklet.

Hmm. And the first version they published were already named "rev4", and these amended ones are "rev5" It's obviously a tricky job...

From being 13 minutes apart my wife and I are now 3 hours apart and the heat numbers have been changed. Almost as bad as Gothenberg when we were over 4 hours apart

Re: WMOC 2018
Anyone understand the various public transport options for Copenhagen? We're not hiring a car and just going to the sprint - seems to be the Citypass doesn't go far enough north and the Copenhagen card is too expensive?

I'm doing the same - it looks like the best approach is to load the app mentioned in the bulletin and use it for route planning and ticket purchase (quite a bit cheaper than buying from the ticket machine). There seem to be bus/train connections that will get you to the sprint qualifier, and you pay by zone (like London) so one ticket covers the lot.

Re: WMOC 2018
Yes the app looks pretty good but I cant quite work out whether its charging per journey , for a return journey or for any number of journeys within the zones. I'm sure it'll become apparent though.

Re: WMOC 2018
Enjoyed the sprints. Heading home now back to work. Yesterday’s sprint final area was quite strange. You seem to have had quite a different race experience depending on which start you had. I think they maybe underestimated the numbers when they picked the race arena/run in! Bit disappointing from a C finalist perspective(or D in some cases) that all those DQ in the heats were still competitive in the results contrary to the final details.

The race arena had to change as the works in front of the main buildings were not completed in time (marked as the large D shape)
