Try the SCORE web site...they had a course map for the last race and I think it had some GPS markers...

The route is not the same as previous 1000... or rarely is.

www.rlhcomm.com has the race maps and course notes from about 2000 to present. The SCORE web site has the GPS waypoints from the last race and
maybe the last 12 months but I think they are downloads for specific GPS units. I suppose you may be able to convert them to your use??? But basically
the SCORE races are not that difficult to follow on a map and the ribbons and arrows are still up from the last race. Just print out the race map and
course notes from the SCORE or RLH site. If you get lost just take the most used road until you meet someone.
