  1. There was live gps tracking on every stage where anyone could have captured the route information if they wanted to.
  2. Congratulations on completing your first Cape Epic. Thanks for your post, let me address some of the highlights from your post: "it was the most climbing per km" Yes, one meter more per km compared to 2013. Wow! "a lot more technical than before as this was the biggest issue people had regarding the previous routes" These people you referring to completed all the previous epics? "Oh I forgot, you didn't get a entry to do it, so you won't know, hence why I don't get it why you give such half comments." What do I know hey. "sit behind their keyboards" I prefer being called a couch potato. I do respect Mr Vermaak kudos to him. He did put SA mtb on the international map. Tell me Dominik, what's your opinion regarding the Cape Epic gps tracking rule?
  3. That explains the many DNF's Edit: Only 483 teams (out of 645 give or take) finished the shortest ever Cape Epic 2016
  4. Give the entry and bike to a motivated youngster. I also prefer not being dictated on what I do with my gps tracking device data. Donate/invest in cycling at school level instead of offering free entries to pamper celebs or wealthy clients.
  5. Not interested in him and his amabubesi ambitions at the epic, job or no job
  6. I have lost all interest in the epic hype. Every second rider is now an amabubesi. I think The Munga is the next big thing, tough as nails. Not in many a riders shoes to finish that beast in 5 days. Would love to see all the amabubesi ABSA VIP guests and all the celebs tackle The Munga and finish it. There's no pampering or hype, it's just pedal pedal pedal to get to the finish pappie!
  7. Riaan Manser riding for @Columbia_RSA, when is that dude going to get a REAL job? He was also in the Inside #8DaysOfCourage Chat Show, yawned through it. Will grate my nuts if I see him on Super Cycling.
  8. And to add to all these questions, why not allow gps tracking due to the live tracking available on the epic website for all to see and capture.
  9. .....all you need is a little duct tape!

  13. Racing my shadow early this morning!
  14. Don't forget the guys in the luxury accommodation! Can I do adventure racing with flat pedals and plakkies?

  16. I rode the epic in in 2010 for the price of R25900 per team!
  17. That's Clive Padgett.
  18. Crazy! That Ritchey carbon fork is more forgiving compared to a Niner carbon fork, good choice. What is his team mate riding?
  19.
