Are they selling vintage bikes and do we now have to pay with pieces of silver now

Not at all. If you have done any races previously, you have been seeded according to your performance in those races.

I am in the “try to be fast” B batch. Will hopefully catch up to some A batchers ????

Will probably get seeding info today

info@velocourse.co.za They might accommodate late entries on race day

It depends on the distance. 50km is quite technical but doable. 30km is intermediate and the rest is very easy, consisting of mainly jeep track. Single tracks are flowing and fun. Elevation is quite flat - mostly short steep climbs.

Ok thanks. So training should just be more relaxed rather than gunning for PB’s

Perhaps as close to the fitness graph as possible

So, I have decided to ‘give it a tri’ and entered the FUNTRI in Ekurhuleni in October. 600m/20km/5km. Any advice on how much can be pushed and when to rather hold back a bit? I am following a training program from FitTrack with 8 training sessions per week at various intensity levels that peaks before the event, but any other advice? I am also a bit in the dark regarding transition rules. When are you supposed be on/off your bike? Does the transition time count towards final time?

When you rest well between training sessions, you recover, fatigue subsides and your form improves. Better form, better performance and results.

I am waiting patiently for this...

Yes, the MC said the marathon is rated 8/10 on difficulty and endurance. Compared to Sabie or even the Cradle stage race, it was super easy - 5/10. But super fun though ????????

I enjoyed it very much. It was not technical except for the rocky descent. A bit of flowing singletrack made it interesting and fun. There were no long, steep climbs which really helped me save my legs for the last 5km sprint. It felt like I could still ride another 10km... Can’t wait for the next one.

Not all results are loaded yet. Only 39 ladies listed for 70km. Try to contact Jumpertrax.

Entered for the 80km!

They do that for all new members. Had my details verified in less than a week and now I am currently trading.

Can we use our SAS boards

Entered for the 40km and 60km. Any indication of what the terrain and route is like?
