niklasvm Posted March 13, 2011 Share Indeed, nobody know the answer to what seemed an easy question? Each group has an exact start time. When you start and cross the first mats, they log your chip and now know in which group you started. When you finish the race they get your finishing time based on the exact start time of your group.

chris_w_65 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Have they made the Argus easier/shorter? In 2003 the winning time for the A bunch was 2:51 Edited March 13, 2011 by chris_w_65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny K Posted March 13, 2011 Share Sub 3 baby! My Garmin has it at 2:57:12 (but that is unofficial). Got to the top of Suikerbossie at 2:33/34 - so from then on I knew it would be possible. @atraut - were you in red spez kit? I was riding a Celeste and Yellow Bianchi with Metropolitan kit - was out front or towards the front of the bunch a lot. I remember a red spez kit coming past me up Suikerbossie and being in the mix until the end. @niklasvm - nice one man! @Stefan - I was 3rd in the climb from E bunch up Chappies. We were working hard from the beginning. I had to chuckle at the E lead rider shouting 'keep left' as we were motoring up there. Got stuck behind another E rider going up and lost touch of the front two guys. One of them was a 1st year junior rider (Josh from JHB) whose team mates were seeded in A. Flipping strong dude!

Tiny K Posted March 13, 2011 Share You were with the top guys of the E-bunch? I came from L-group and I think I just made it or just missed it (how do they take your group exact start time?! When the first rider crosses the mats?)Came 2nd in my group. When does results usually come in? Race only officially finished 10min ago......prob tomorrow on racetec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a red spez kit coming past me up Suikerbossie and being in the mix until the end. Jip SirK, it was me in red Spez kit. I marked you on Suikerbossie. Had a miss shift and a derailled chain as we hit Chappies, and had a lot of recovery to do when we got to Suikerbossie. Well done on your awesome time!
