Hi Everyone Looking for ideas how to fix this One plastic piece on the side broke off It clips in.but very loose so I jam it with something It's a bryton 530 Thanks

Thanks World champs haha It will be my 25th so I think it's time to enjoy the atmosphere and day on my mtb 😉

Thanks May have been more involved but 4 of us got into the ambulance It happened at around 45-46km ph so no time to react Just disappointing when your race ends like this, no control over what happened. All the plans for Feb are cancelled now

So my 99er experience was shortlived Started in E having not doing many races other than CTCT and regular Killarney. High speed crash at 36km on the R304. Could see the accident about to happen as someone came across my front wheel. The rest I don't remember 4 of us in the ambulance taken to durbanville medi clinic. 2 fractured collarbone, and hip with bad road rash . I came of the lightest nothing broken but bad bruising. The response time of the ambulance was pretty quick 3 -4min Our bikes were tagged and taken back to the start where a friend collected WELL DONEcl to the organisers for the quick response to an accident. Time to recover now and heal, road rash not pleasant at all. My first big accident after many years of cycling. Cracked frame and damage but thankful it wasn't worse. Why we cycle

Anyone know if numbers can be collected the morning before the race. According to website and FB, ASG Paarl and CWC on Saturday Question was asked twice on FB page, no response other than what's on website

Wow this is mtb'ing at its finest. The trails are awesome and views spectacular. Route well marked and waterpoints fully stocked well marshaled. Heat was a killer today on the long route, 38 deg Pity I didn't put in enough training, there are no free km in the race. Tough but rewarding day on the mtb.

Live FB update from organizers @2pm Race is officially going ahead, no mention of canceling They prepared for the wind

Absolutely agree, awesome day out on the trails Weather played along and the light drizzle welcomed

1A no wind Definitely a sub 3 if u stick with them

1E Stopped being a ppa member in 2015 and slowly starting accumulating penalty points every year from not doing road events. 2D start last year on my DS. Started one tonner 2018 109km in L, then SCT in 2A, rode 2:48 which equates to a D ppa seeding. Could have been a group or 2 better if I did more races. 1E seems about right.

ATTENTION ALL RIDERS! Please note that seedings will be communicated to all Cape Town Cycle Tour entrants by latest next week Wednesday, 13 February.

It's disingenuous to advertise specific races as official seeding events (99er being one) but you get penalized if event older than 5 months come the following year. It's obvious they use current events. Just be upfront about it.

Any idea when seeding will be released?

Just out of curiosity When did everyone press start on their computers. If I recall, the announcer said first section on paving neutral zone, once you turn left race starts. There was only one mat at the start. Seems like most guys on strava got around 99.5-99.7km, pressing start at the mat.

The problem is having so many cars coming in via 1 entrance, that's the biggest stuff up. The actual venue not bad. If they can sort out the parking and entrance points then it will solve the problem. I started in 2A and yes we were a big group when we caught 1D but then again groups are way bigger in CTCT. Not having full road closure will always be challenging with the numbers especially when groups merge. Not easy to fix, smaller groups, bigger gap between start groups, better marshaling?
