To all of those saying its Emma's fault etc, read the rules etc, did any bother to read the organisers fine print, they reserve the right to change the route at any time, so when the organiser’s car makes a different turn, you must follow it, I can just imagine if the route had been changed, at the last minute, and Emma went LEFT, the same people will hang her out to dry, and say why did not follow the lead car!!!! Remember last week in the MTB race, we were told it only smells like sewage, but it is not sewage. BS!!!!!

I must concur, I acutaully thought last year was a tougher route, I did a 2.10 This year with less training, covid, plus a heart issue as a result of covid, I was trying for a 1.50. However I smashed a 1.37???? riding at Tempo, never went into the red once

Does anyone perhaps have GPX files for the MTB routes

Thanks did that, got a whatsup back, to say I am registered for a B Start, (on their website still nothing...)

Have also been trying to get hold of race office for the MTB, just checked the above list, and am nowhere to be found... WTF, R office very silent today

All I can say is respect.......... its on the bucket list

They have never had the capacity or capability to do the testing. We had requested them to do testing at various Provincial and National championships, the response was, we will come the Federation must pay for each and every cyclist tested. They never came.

So I checked the HA database Name matches the Id number but not the date of issue. The original green bar coded Id was issued on 22/07/1995. Furthermore if you check the font of the Id number, it also differs. All RSA ID documents have a unique patented font for H A use only

And everyone is ignoring the Tax implications of BITCOIN, those who do not disclose, are in a small heap of trouble. If you bought and haven't sold, you are okay, and will pay the tax when you exit. To traders, this will deemed to be your income, and push you into a much higher tax bracket. All the banks have to report the purchase of Bitcoin etc to FIC and SARS. SARS have started looking.

Matthew, well done, I passed you early on in the race, my advice, stick to the shorter distances, your overall body frame size is still on the small size. Do not rush it, Train harder and pace yourself. BTW the field was very small, in all the categories.
