I started in 6A (09:10) As soon as we hit the freeway people where scattered all over the road, and there where no groups to speak of at all. The E-bike group started passing me towards the end of Blue route at one hell of a speed. Most of them carrying massive backpacks, but I guess that was to carry the spare batteries around. Most of the E-bike guys where fine, but you did get the occasional (Rather large) lady trying to pass people up hills going twice the speed, and yelling rather loudly at anyone in her way. Was not ideal at all in my opinion. It rained hard up Chappies, and the wind down the other side was hectic. You really had to pay attention towards the end of the ride. Most of the guys doing a second lap where cool, there where a few who took a massive ego boost by showing off to all us back markers and weaving in and around us slower guys. my 53-39 front chaining didn't do me any favors on the day. All the gear and no idea. SO...Whats next?
