The route might be shorter, but the embarrassment might be bigger if you do not complete it within the allocated time.

Perhaps it should not only be regarded as a solidarity ride in support of those who was affected by the blaze, but also a ride in support of reconciliation between CSA , PPA and the Cape Town Cycle Tour Trust.

You will run out of the alphabet if you experience a puncture on Chappies.

....I didn't experience the routes for the Durby Dash, 99er and Tour de PPA as small back roads which is unsafe for masses.

I quote:"As part of our standard operating procedure we have alternative route plans available for consideration by the authorities."

If it was part of an alternative route then it would be possible to implement plan B on short notice. I however get the impression that Plan B was a deviation of the original route via Ou Kaapse Weg and not an alternative route as such.

Ek is oortuig daarvan die inwoners en besighede in Paarden Eiland, Milnerton, Blouberg, Parklands, die Noordelike Voorstede ens soos een man sou vereenig om 'n alternatiewe roete in die gebied vir die fietstoer moontlik te maak in soldariteit met die areas wat deur die brande affekteer word. Wanneer jou buurman se huis afbrand dan gee jy tog huisvesting aan hom in jou eie huis! Dit is die minste wat jy kan doen. ....yes we can or is Visserhok as an alternative to Suikerbossie to steep?

What happened to the ALTERNATIVE ROUTE? This is not an alternative route ,but merely a shortened route.

Medical costs.

Ek het gehoop dat ek vroeer kan wegspring, maar ry vir 'n Charity in my eerste Argus wat eers om 09h28 wegspring. Is die verkeer oor die algemeen druk in die oggend op die N1 van die Noordelike Voorstede na die Stad op die dag van die resies? Is daar voldoende parkering in die stad wat van so 'n aard is dat ek maklik parkering sal bekom teen 07h30 - 08h00 omgewing of sal ek ook vroegoggend daar moet wees om parkering te verseker? Is daar iewers 'n lys van opsies wat benut kan word vir parkering byv parkeergarages ens.?

I noticed an incident on the Philadelphia road on race day where a motorist in a white vehicle overtook a group of riders (pelaton) on the right hand lane of the road, hooted constantly, went onto the gravel and nearly collided with oncoming traffic. Cycling should be a gentlemans sport and should rid itself of the hooligans within to focus on the real threat of hooligens like the motorist in the white vehicle.

What is the best product to prevent sweat running in my eyes whilst MTB cycling? Sweat Gutr, Halo, scull cap , bandana etc etc? Would the sollution be the same for road cycling? Kindly advise.

I found one. Perfect for Suikerbossie.......

Is your recommendation based thereon that I am 1.74 m tall? Is a 29er more suitable for a taller rider? Kindly advise.

I intend to participate in the Argus Cycle Tour 2014 for the first time. I am 45 years old, 1,74metres tall and have been cycling for approximately a year and participated in approximately x10 MTB Challenges. I have a 2012 model 26inch MTB and accumulated approximately 3000km on same. 1. Would you recommended that I acquire slicks and utilise my 26inch MTB being a bicycle with which I am comfortable? 2. Would you recommend that I acquire a 29er? I was informed that I will improve my time in relation to a 26inch MTB. 3. Would you recommend that I acquire a road bicycle? My intention is to enjoy the ride in an average time for my age. Kindly furnish me with your advice.
