Yip... 100% agree with that...

I referring more to the support from the organizers, not the fact that you cant or shouldn't ride it. I was on a MTB... and it is somewhat slower that road bikes…

Not a race for laggards or newbies... R511 was hairy to say the least with the cars and bikes... and no shoulder to ride on. I do get that full road closure is difficult... but at least have some indication that there is a cycle race on... the only indication was at the 45km mark... a lady with a board... i certianly felt alone out there with the laggards. Every now and then a marshall would pass... in all honesty, the reason for doing this race was because of road closure... Not to mention that when i did finish.. organisers were busy packing up... had to look for the guy that was handing out medals...and I know there were a few guys still out on the road...

No idea what e-biking is?

Also relatively new to the cycling scene...Got me a hand-me-down (mtb) from my boet... Who is quite into it... So planning my first 94.7 on a pedaling bicycle.. (Have done the event 9 times with a motorized bicycle(Motorbike)), I must admit that it is a lot easier twisting your wrist to get up hills opposed to pedaling...
