I FLY Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I'm in for Saturday - problem is it's World Cup Qtr Final weekend... They normally have a big screen for the rugby
BigToe Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Crasher and I will be back to right some wrong's from last year....it was a long day at the office!
FC&P2C Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Was planning to do it since my first one last year but just saw the date and it clashes with our bmx grand nationals. Bummer!
Purnjap Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Did it last year, wasn't anywhere near fit enough, this year I am even less fit but have entered, bring it on! (Still my favourite waterpoint in any race, the one in the riverside farmer's front yard with the hosepipe in the tree)
Ramrod Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Yeah same here. Last years time was nothing to write home about. This year i will have my revenge. Plan on cutting 1 hour min off last years time.
NotSoBigBen Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 106k Saturday with loads of gears and Sunday's 58 with always the wrong gear Is a 32*16 good for the Sunday ride?
narra Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Doing the 106 one and will regret is most probably. 32-16, 29er
Wyatt Earp Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Rode it on a 32/16 last year, I could have taken time off with a bigger blade.
TNT1 Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) Rode it on a 32/16 last year, I could have taken time off with a bigger blade. 32/12? or 32/14? Just cause I have a 32... Edited August 24, 2011 by TNT1
Gareth1982 Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I don't think I am near fit enough for the 106km on the Saturday so I think I will enter the 58km for the Sunday rather....
kosmonooit Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Can get quite hectic if hot & dry, like last year ... EISH
Wyatt Earp Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 32/12? or 32/14? Just cause I have a 32...It's such a personal thing, picking a gear, it's all up to the individual.
Tumbleweed Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Both days , yes SS, no. I remember passing Tumbleweed a few years ago on his SS. He was a broken man. That I was indeed. But the gearing was all wrong on that bike. I had a 42 on the front… TW tends(ed?) to be broken, but that has(had?) more to do with involuntary dismounts... Oi! Stoppit!
TucknRoll Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 They normally have a big screen for the rugby I think where the problem comes in, is that the quarter final games start at 7:00 and 9:30 Maybe they need to start the race later!!
