Jaco-fiets Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Thanks helloise and Jaco-fiets, I may have to make this my first official MTB race ever... There we go! This is a great first race and best organised as well. You wont be sorry!
MTB_Roadie Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Really a very nice race, was my first race back last year...did the 35km in 1hour 53min...so sure want to beat it this time
rpedro Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 This race was part of my life change. Two years ago I came stone dead last in the 55km. Since then I quit smoking, trained hardand lost 35kgs. I will be back every year just 2 remind myself of my journey. This is for sure my favourite race on the calendar. Would be awesome if I could get one of those medals.
Meezo Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 In my opinion this is the best organised race on the calender. You have great route markings, regular distance indicators and ample waterpoints. The distance is also as they claim and not 5km or so longer. The locals are great and very hospitable. I missed last year but i will be there this year. If this is the case then i don't mind the 180km drive to the event, unlike the very disappointing Tulbagh experience over the weekend past... I take your word for it Jaco-fiets :thumbup:

SWM1 Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Oh crap - just looked at the weather forecast for Saturday: 7 deg C, lots of rain and a strong North-Wester - should be fun
flymango Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Oh crap - just looked at the weather forecast for Saturday: 7 deg C, lots of rain and a strong North-Wester - should be fun I think you could be mistaken? Looks like an awesome day according to my weather forecast. http://www.windguru.cz/int/index.php?sc=131692
