With Mountains the clear winner of the first vote, it is now time to decide the course and location. The MGUCI has narrowed down the choice to two options:  Aosta and  Paarl, with courses created by Selwink and tsmoha respectively.
The Road Race courses are shown below:
Aosta
Paarl
The Team Time Trial will most likely feature loops of the circuit featured in each course, while the Individual Time Trial will have an alternative less-Mountainy profile.
Vote away!

Paarl is good because Aosta is already location of CX:AND WC this season 
Though the Aosta course finishes downhill and I think that'd make a nicer gameplay and more possible winners...

Gone with Aosta for the finish at the bottom of the climb, I just feel it'll give a more interesting race.

Aosta simply because we have Italians in our team.

Voted Aosta for the simple reason that I expect more riders to be in the mix. If we end on a large mountain I struggle to see anyone but the 84/85 MO riders winning. And despite having one of those myself, the WC isnt about getting the best odds for me, but rather to see spectacular racing, with an open chance for many riders.

Voted Paarl as I want it in Africa (tbh I wanted Asia, but that was no option :-p)

I agree with SotD here and also picked Aosta, for the same reason, as downhill finish can spice things up.

I think the mountaintop finish makes Paarl the better choice.

Aosta for me, I've always liked downhill finishes just because they are quite unpredictable.

50/50
Couldn't decide between the two, downhill WC would be more entertaining in my opinion but an African WC would also be great as an African team. Eventually chose Aosta but don't mind either way. |

Very exiting. I voted Aosta to get a more open race even though Africa would be cool as well.

What's the closest vote there's ever been for a WC? It seems closer than I've seen but Aosta has been making quite a surge.
