  1. I do a lot of my business over web meetings and i have tried many different options but i always land up going back to Skype. there are some other options that have not been mentioned such as Google Duo which are pretty good. What i find important is the ability to use the platform on laptop and Cellphone, the ability to share screens and share files and the ability to use video or just voice. If i had to rate them it would go as follows: 1. Skype (Seems to be the most stable on low bandwidth calls) 2. Webex 3. MS Teams 4. Zoom 5.Google Duo 6. Slack
  2. That is a great gesture!!
  3. Force majeure .. I would seriously doubt that athletes would get their money back if the event is cancelled. Man, can you imagine how gut wrenching it would be for the lads that have spent the last year preparing for this event, not even mentioning the financial commitment.

  7. Hi Dan Thanks for the suggestion, only problem i see with age cats is that on the long race it can be Vets, Sub vets and seniors that could win the race so to split it into age groups wouldn't be fair, on the short race it is usually junior riders that win it but you could however make a "elite" batch with mixed age groups and then after that batch split it into age groups, we will have to look into it to find a working solution, the last thing you want as a rider is to be caught in a bottle neck on an awesome flowing single track.
  8. Mokgaga its in July, Final date still to be confirmed
  9. Thanks for the feedback guys, We always value the feedback (good or bad) the only way we can improve is by getting this feedback. With regards to the honesty seeding system, It will always remain a contentious issue and it may not be the best solution but we fine the same challenges with the traditional seeding systems as well, I bet you all have experienced getting stuck behind slow riders even in A batch. The fortunate thing about the Fast one is the long stretch of tar road at the start that usually sorts out any bottlenecks but if its not working we need to review the start procedure. We hope to see you at at the Winter Fast One!!

  13. Hey guys, we have made some changes to the 70km (67km actual) which is going to make the race ALOT tougher than previous years, the 40km remains the same but do not burn all your matches in the start of the long race, i will post the route and profile shortly
