Good one, thanks for sharing and hope you're ok.

Going back to Krugersdorp is fine (edit: legal), going to Pretoria, not so much (illegal).

$20 Winter pass for all CX races, SS will probably only do WC races, right????

They have a variety of groups/ride types, else there is always the 05:00 Palm Tyres option. You're welcome to send me a PM.

Hi Del, You can become a member of the Hillbillies in George.

Thank you for the reminder! I only see African road champs on SuperSport🤔

Please give us a race report after?

No relation to the OP, but they actually put on events and have a following. I don't twyfel their ability/legitimacy: https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/193639-event-sedgefield-500/#comments

So I entered the lottery (a friend told me it was on) and got an entry. I ran the Madibaz 21km in Sept, but apart from that have zero anything else. I entered as prep for MUT 45 and hope to get cracking soon (but first a lazy DC effort). Furthest I've run before was the OMTOM 24km trail some years ago. Wish me luck. Oh and I need to choose a qualifier...

Was my first K2C yesterday. Rode it with mate who forgot his bottles at home. No biggy, each rocky descent had enough to pick and choose from. Was on a DS and was glad I wasn't on a gravel. Felt like I was either going up or down, no real space for recovery. Was also too warmly dressed, and felt a bit stupid tbh. Water points were good and was a bit overwhelmed by having them as close as 10kms apart. Had way too muxh wors at the one stop. Will I be back, probably yes and no. Logistics to an earlier post wasn't ideal, asking the wife to drop us at 06:30 and then fetching us at Knysna (from George) wasn't a back breaker but could be less effort. Saw a variety of riders, under and over-biked, under and over-dressed, which leads me to it is a fan favourite. And due to the scenery probably as well. So maybe in a few years time again. Also wasn't too expensive considering what the others charge. Which might sway me to go back sooner. Thanks to all the organisers.

I assume most of the roads will be public and I assume they hope Montagu pass will be open. Gravel grinder back packing fun.

Was hoping that more gravel pros would consider a trip to Sunny SA for this. But so be it, thanks to the team who put this together, was a goody.

Knife edge stuff, rooting for Kasia!

Saw the same at CP2 and CP3, and thought the same, what flippen muppets.
