Would you mind sharing which distance you cycled in trailseeker 1 and your time to put things into perspective? Reason I'm asking is there are a number of us that cycled the Nissan Trailseeker 1 as our first SAS Seeding event and it turns out non of us have been seeded or have a seeding index for that matter.
I would stick my neck at here and say that batch allocations MUST be based on seeding. If you have a better seeding than your friend, you should start before her. My understanding of seeding is so that cyclists with similar times/indexes/whatever cycle together. Last thing you want is her holding you up on the single track!
Where you checking your rating Mr Single Track? I've only done one SAS event (Trailseeker #1) and was hoping to have a seeding index by now, however, there isnt one on http://www.saseeding.co.za/
I also have a few questions with regards the SAS seeding. - How many races does one need to ride before receiving a seeding index? - Where does one check current seeding index? I had a look on http://www.saseeding.co.za and it does not seem to be updated.
I doubt it I doubt it. I had a some issues trying to load a few entries this morning. Try another brower, google chrome worked better than IE8. Discount for entries before the 10 May 2012, however the payment process does not include the discount. I sent an email to eventry and awaiting their reply.
Anybody done this one before and willing to give a little input with regards the course? Is it a very technical route? Is there a route profile? What would the average times be for the 40km and 70km? We are a few guys keen on riding but still debating whether we try the 40km or 70km. Some say go big or go home, I dunno so much.
Getting back to the dude with the air horn... We were contemplating throwing our braai tongs into his front wheel! He would probably have landed bang in front of your camp site where you guys could have finished him off. All in good spirit ofcourse! Great vibe, thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
Awesome Awesome Event! Thanks to EVERYONE!!! Wendell, great event, will certainly be back next year. First 24 hour... first MTB race actually! What started out as being a social ride became more competitive as the time passed.
Will be there!!! Whoop Whoop! Purchased Magicshine MJ-808E lights from www.easybike.co.za. Ordered yesterday afternoon, arrived this morning. Great Service. Weather looking good too!
