I think it was the worst organized race if attended ever. <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> We were early but the entrance was so badly mark that we had to make a few u-turns before getting in. They could at least mark the entrance a bit better it was a mess. Secondly the person announcing the start was totally confused and not up for the job. He told us that the 107km must stay on top (were on top was I still don?t know) then he said only the 150km must be at the start. Then he started joking about the people in the groups and the next thing we hear is him saying that the only people left should be the 47km people. Never has he called for the 107km people, we just rushed thru the 47km people and as we got to the start he told us that if we are 107km riders we missed it. The first part of the route (to Delmas was really bad) no pot hole markings and the traffic was quite bad, trucks were flying past almost knocking me of my bike I went off the road but managed to stay on my bike no punctures. Water points were small and the people were very friendly but stopping for water is out of the question. Besides all of that was it is really tough race, the one light point is that I finished closer it the leaders time so I hope my seeding will improve.
