  1. Hi everyone Can these timing boards be used for the Trailseeker? On the entry page they mention that new Pursuit Timing Boards must be purchased.

    Thank you everyone for the advice. Very much appreciated. We are going to go with the option to rent.

    Howzit My wife and I will be entering our first Half IronMan in Mossel Bay at the end of the year. Cycling and running we should have everything covered. It's the swimming that needs some attention - goal is to just get through the swimming and then make up some time in the cycling and running. My Dad has given me his old wet suit. I think he used it for surfing in his younger days. Is this type of wetsuit allowed for the event? If I can save some money by using this wetsuit that will be great but want to make sure within the rules. Any advice regarding wetsuits will be very much appreciated. Thanks.

  6. Hi I am looking for a second hand treadmill. One that can connect to Zwift. Where does one look for second hand treadmills? Thanks
  7. Did the half marathon with my wife. Was her first race in a long time after giving birth 4 months ago. I dropped from my seeded batch C to her I batch which was the last batch for the half marathon. We knew we would be doing plenty of passing. It was carnage out there! On most of the climbs there was a line of people walking their bikes. Generally, everyone was very good at keeping left and allowing us to pass. Like mentioned above, not a lot of free Km's. Had to work for that medal. We liked that the venue was very close to home. Overall, we really enjoyed the race and will be back. The hot weather and climbing made it tough but a good day out.

    How does it work with riders on E-Bikes? There was one guy I noticed in my batch C and he did very well with a good time. I couldn't care less about what position I come overall, sex or in my class. It is all about the time which is my goal. Just curious to know how the E-Bikes fit into the results.

    So after 3 reseeding submissions, 2 declines, I finally got a Whatsapp to say I have been reseeded to C. I wanted B, but will take C after initially been seeded in E. I'm done fighting...lol.

    Last year did a 02:45 in Batch B. Was seeded in Batch E. Asked for a reseed into Batch B again and received the below Whatsapp response today: We declined your request. Factors we consider when reviewing a seeding request: - We only move riders to an earlier batch based on merit - Space availability in the requested batch All the best Team Ride Joburg

    Same here! Why is the seeding a mess every year? Have also lodged a seeding query. I see seeding queries close tomorrow.

    Brilliant event! Parking was easy. I was seeded in VA but decided to drop and ride with A batch. I see in the results they have assumed I started with VA and thus an extra 40mins on my actual time. Anybody have a similar results difference when dropping back into another batch?
