  1. I saw on the event's website, it says you can contact them for the GPX files. Here is the link to the site's contact's page: https://erau64.wixsite.com/cederberg100miler/contact
  2. Getting closer. Same nervous exitement as previous years. The new 160km route adds a new dimension, but the organizers never disappoint. Love this event.
  3. I am currently lazy, unfit and overweight. Yet this is my favorite race of the year, and I wouldn't miss it for anything.
  4. I have ridden many of the trails. The superb single track and that feeling of being a 1,000 miles away from the city can only be experienced in Wellington. There is a reason the that the Cape Epic is a regular visitor to Wellington. Karl Plat often refers to Wellington as favorite trails. The climbing is well worth it. If you haven't been there is a while, you will be surprised at the amount of new trails. The new trails is especially awesome.
  5. 10/10! PS: For the guys doing the Trek there was even a free beer stop.
  6. 2019 here we come.
  7. Rode pass you in your last 5km. Felt like a dog not being able to help. At such a tough race, even if everything goes well you tend to lose your sense of humor at bit. Well done for not giving up. Most people would have pulled the plug in your situation. Ditto for the commitment to go back in 2019. Personally, the longer races doesn't suite me, but there is something special about this one. I'll be back for more torture, but it is definitely worth it.
  8. Extremely tough race with awesome route. Superbly organized. Everything from great goodybags, waterpoints in the right places to a personal touch. #IWillBeBack, #GeyMyFriendsToDoThis race.
  9. Awesome event. The 2 day track is obviously easier, but nothing beats that feeling when you managed to do the 160km in one day. Yes it is tough, but it is all gravel roads. I am a very average cyclist that struggle with cramps, but it will be my 4th time doing this event. Just pace yourself. The organisers really go out of their way to make the race worth your while. They can double the entry and I will still do it. Just remember with 3K climbing you also get lots of down hills. Very doable and a must do.
  10. Awesome event, but challenging enough on my normal mtb. Looking foward to the 2018 event.
  11. I did the 74km route. Was actually very well marked. I guess when you are tired your eyes play tricks on you. There is always one or two.
  12. I bought a R25K bike from VBike.co.za (Scott scale 910). I even phoned Scott themselves, to confirm the legitimacy of the products as the price was almost to good too be true. Anyway, 4 days later the bike was delivered at my home in Bellville (WC). Service was great. Dealt with a guy named Brett.
