Cacey

I prefer Ryder sealant, been using it for years and did many a loooong race with it and never had a seal problem when getting a puncture. Also easy to clean out with just water when cleaning and refilling wheels.

I have these and love them on my Scott 900

Always have Rennies on hand and as soon as you feel the tingle of cramps starting chow 2 of them, works for most people, it is a short term solution but could at least help you over your next climb and maybe even further

Just watch out for his rear wheel when he crosses some cattle rails whilst looking at the view

Just to be clear, I know that the problem is not PPA but rather Racetec so please PPA don't send me a mail trying to explain that one - you are not in the wrong here

Nope just want the correct results NOW!!!!!!!!!

No no no all I'm saying is put the time in, fix the problem and don't just try and please some people with a half ass job. We all rode hard and paid our fees for correct results and if they can't deliver then please let us know when we can expect the correct results. It has been 3 days already!

Isn't it easier to except corruption that to keep on fighting it in court battles?

So must every person with incorrect time query their results before getting the correction done? Seems a bit skewed as they are paid to sort the problem or at least get it right the first time and should at least keep us informed of possibly when they will have the correct times and seeding up

WOW no wonder my legs hurt today - 11:35 race time for the race, longest 162km on my bike ever

Jip same here, phoned PPA and was told that they will not give better seeding to upgrade in A B or C???????????? Update Had a nice reply from PPA and fully understand the reasoning behind the decision so I will start in D and just be skelm and sit behind the other faster boys going past and tow to the faster groups. So everyone in D and E please go fast and do not look back - I will be behind you ????????????

Socks at CP4 with toe caps to keep the digits warm, shoes should be dryish at CP4 already

Use all the water crossings after CP3 as cleaning stations (at speed not walking) when riding through as this will help to clean off some of the mud and dust off the first 110km's. The section after Baviaans reserve gate is a bit muddy.

Wish I could join but bike still to dirty from the weekends riding

Going for no 5 this year, will need to start training my back (not back side but lower back) for those never ending corrugated roads

I got a guy at Cape Point on a MTB with 6K and I started in 1C, he must have taken Ou Kaapseweg as a shortcut

New toys - let's see how these hold up

Jip finished but VERY colorfull today

Oh snap - I was the 3rd wheel over you, badly bruised legs, 2 non repairable rims and a nasty roasty knee but it's all good, ribs luckily not broken but very eina today, these things happen. Glad you are okay!

The camel that almost broke my back - started with a serious lack of form after a 3 month lay off due to an injury in October, longest race CTCT and then Philidephia 75km that had me cramping and making me question my sanity for even being on the start line. NOT TO CLEVER I KNOW ???? but thanks to Team Brenner (2nd Mixed) I was on the start line and gave it a full go. Made it to CP2 "just" and told the monsters to carry on without me, they said no and I decided to see if I would be able to keep up but 200m from CP 2 I got a massive cut on my rear wheel and had to stop. Told the other 2 to keep going and I will see them at the end, which they did???????? Anyway, fixed the wheel and started heading towards Rooiberg, got to it and monsterd up the hill (still don't know how), did the same with the down hill but then that irritating long flat road to Calitzdorp started and I was done, slow go no power sore a.. and arms and knees and hands and........ Barely made it to CP3 and there they are "team Brenner". This gave me a bit of a moral boost just a pity not a leg boost. The Brenners went on their merry way and I had a good meal, some juice, put every thing I would not need for the last 80km's in my box and hit the raod. I unfortunately fogot what this stage was like, I will never ever trust a route profile again, it was death on MTB by the road of death - those damm hills almost killed me. My back gave up completely and I could not even get off my bike at the waterpoints but decided to keep turning the pedals. Made it all the way to the end in 21:40, crowled off my bike and headed straight to the medics with the help of my wife and they did what they could just to get me moving again. Glad I started and finished this race but I must say "Race to do list tick" but it was one to far considering all the metal and damage in my back to do again. Big up to Dryland for a once again excellent race and experience that I will boast about for years to come. For those wondering what the last bit is really like in terms of profile ..........

Some single speed fun

Tore my quads off my pelvis so .... What is training again going to have to ride like hell when healed up again otherwise 361 will become 36none

Bring your own fresh water this time becuase Cape Town wil have none I will still enter but question the dicision to host the event in light of the severe water shortage.

Wonder who has the KOM on Strava for the river crossing?
