if i look at the elevation graph, it shows Vissershok at the 20km mark, or am i reading it wrong?
Pretty sure it's just after Tour De PPA. That usually counts towards CTCT seeding.
last year we received our seedings before the Tour de PPA. I know they gave some bonus points towards your CTCT seeding if you entered Tour de PPA
So, presumably seeding by next week Friday as last year? But since the entries are still open and there is no official closing date, wondering if this is still gonna be the case or are they going to wait till the last second?
could possibly be as 99er is the last seeding race
we did a recon ride 2 weeks ago, that road is bad, i could not imagine a race on that road. It feels like you riding over potholes
thanks guys
What makes a Premier Seeding event different to other races? i always assumed that the beta is a bit higher than other events in order to improve seeding.
what are your guys assumptions on Beta of this race and will they adjust the winners time?
Awesome race, very well organized.
I was in E group, that was a big crash, hope all involved is okay. There was almost a few crashes in E bunch, guys also riding in the opposite lane in the last 1km,was scary
Was nice seeing the Savages for the few seconds of the race
Going to roll from EL on Sunday, busy week and a little sick. Should be fun
Note to self: dont attempt to follow Pure Savages????
EL- 6:21
Still don't see anything up on Racetec about seeding this morning - anyone have any news on this?
Driving through from CT so would like to plan departure times ASAP!
the same my side, and too think entries was sold out on Monday already therefore seeding could of been sent out long time ago already.
340ml, not 75ml, but prices definitely inflated and by the time you add shipping it's more expensive than buying at dischem. They had 2 big ones for about R180 in December and then 1big/1 small for R180 in Jan. I only use Techniblock. I buy a box direct from a supplier every 2 years. Great stuff.
sorry, i didn't see that. One reason I have not bought from them yet is the shipping cost.
i wonder what is the maximum amount of entries. I would assume its way less than SCT due safety etc.
Cheating is cheating no matter where you come in the race. If you enter a race you are legally obliged to race by its rules. If you dont want to then dont take part. Simple. Steroids and chip swopping are way too prevalent. If you know of people cheating report them to CSA. Simple. Be the change that you want to see.
Its ridiculous, i have even heard of people riding with someone else's chip to get the Charles Milner award in DC
Thanks ????
We have put all the PPA Western Cape events on our strava page so can check profile, and segments easily.
Is there a way to load it onto my Garmin?
I would go for hoax, if it was a hack it wouldn't have stayed 6 hours and have received 69 likes, 12 comments and 9 shares before being taken down (I would assume). And I would also assume that if it was a hack they would have posted something afterwards
I sent them an email yesterday asking if it was a hoax but no reply. If they are receiving an influx of questions regarding the hoax then i would assume the best thing to do is post something on social media.
Oh well i guess i should of made the subject of my email "membership renewal ", maybe i would of received a reply.
They were hacked/it was a hoax? Are they aware of it? The least they could have done was to confirm via facebook saying it was a hoax!
Just my personal choice. And no, its not because SCT was cancelled, I feel they made the right decision, safety comes first????
Bye bye PPA membership. No more sulking from 2020 onwards
