No water or cokes at finish. Very poor. I know it is covid, but for R12000 entry fee they could have had bottled water at finish.

Organizers got the starting order completely wrong with the tandems starting behind the vets 50+.We caught the group in Simonstown and caused chaos and effectively changing the whole race for both bunches. Eventually causing a crash at Misty Cliffs.

Also did the long route. Bad marking caused nearly half the A bunch to go the wrong way. Our group did an extra 18km. Riders landed up in town not knowing where to go. A bakkie from the organisers escorted us 6km back to where the turn was and all of a sudden there was a bakkie, big board and a Marshall standing by that turn directing other riders. Not impressed.

We're at Gravel Travel today. Heard a story that the farmer has closed the yellow and black route. Anyone know about this?

Is the Burger MTB raced sanctioned?

Oh well, there is always next year (?)......or MTBing

Good luck in trying to do a warranty claim. My road bike frame cracked after 5 months....local supplier gone....Felt International declined the claim. Think twice before buying this brand in the future.

We had 2 traffic cop cars ahead of us and 2 motorbikes next to us.Would have been easy for the cops to pull the cars off up front, for the 20 sec it takes us to pass. This is farmlands, not in between houses. Second price would be for the comm to find a way to DQ offenders. But there lies the problem, the comms do not know how to do this. Half the bunch did nothing wrong, half the bunch is in the wrong, oh well, lets DQ everybody.

Guess the commisaire wanted to get home early. No warning at all. 21. Penalties and disqualifications procedures Immediate disqualification will be applicable for the following transgressions: i. Crossing the centre line (commissaires to apply some discretion) The worst is the back half is the offenders.The comms should be using the motorbikes to DQ the riders crossing the line. Anyways guess we are in for a few more DQ races. Cant wait for the Light to Linea races to start.

Why could this race not be over the weekend before or after the Argus so that us working people could also take part? Start on Friday afternoon and finish on a Monday?

The time on the official result is correct for Hot Chillee, we parked next to them in the feed zone and we left three minutes after them, because that was the time we needed to make up on them for 2nd place.

We caught Hot Chillee at the 195km mark and they did have six riders. They still came sprinting past us when we turned left at the finish.

Saw your sunglasses, but not in one piece.

So with ongoing spat between PPA and CSA will their be a league this season?

I would like to know why PPA has taken back the league from Cyclelab this season? Cyclelab had a sponsor for the league, Aca Joe, what has happened to this sponsor?
