So what is a good strategy to follow for the Trans Baviaans for a first timer? I see the first 100km is basically 'downhill' and then the climbing starts....so I guess just get a nice easy pace going for first 100km and get the km's behind you and in the same time keep energy for the second part of the race? From 190km I presume it is the mental toughness that kicks in...? Any advice would be helpful!

I did the Trans Karoo from Ceres to Sutherland (240km) in April so looking forward to see how the two races compare!

Looking for someone to maybe help us out and take our car from Willowmore through to J-Bay the Saturday morning....I know they have a vehicle transfer service but the cost is R450 per transfer. We are riding for Cape Brewing Co. so will pay the driver with a few bottles of awesome craft beer!
