There is no cheating. Whoever gets to finish first wins. Bumping, ganking, bridging, webbing, those are part of normal game play. Let the fun begin!

I’m pretty sure a lot of gankers will be waiting at crucial systems where bridging is possible and where Concord is slowest to respond.

The fastest route from Jita to Choonka will take the haulers through low-sec space. Even though the race is through high-sec, it is without a doubt that at least some of these haulers will be tempted to bridge through the low-sec system Kamela (0.4) that is literally just a stargate jump away from the finish line. So expect a lot of ships to converge on the Choonka side of the Kamela gate.

The safest route route will still have Niarja (0.5) which will likely present a problem for haulers. Then there is Jita itself where the initial ganking will likely take place.

Keep in mind that there is only a one-jump difference between the fastest route and the safest route.

UPDATE:

Here is a link to the Jump Planner. The haulers will likely have to jump Aset before reaching Kamela.
