Routes' difficult classification

To describe the technical aspect of the Routes, here we describe some abbreviation:
TC - MC - BC – OC – EC - an abbreviation for the ascent slope, one for the downhill, divided by a bas (/).


Definition of the abbreviation used on this site to descrive the technical difficulty:

TC
(tourist) route on dirt ground, like a carriage road.
MC
(for biker with an average ability) route on a dirt road or on solid path.
BC
(for biker with good technical ability) route on broken dirt road, on mule track, or slippery path, with some natural obstacle (i. e. steps or roots).
OC
(for expert biker) like BC but more difficult and different racks where you have to push or carry your bike.
EC
Max level! Extreme route on irregular path, like trial...

To signal a strong slope, which require a good technical ability, the abbreviation is completed by the mark + (plus). Short tracts with superior difficult don't concur to improve the difficult classification.
