Does anyone know if the route has been confirmed...

 

Will Boyes Drive be included again next year?

I think I will save my 12th for the following year, although hoping to get down to CT with mtb in the forth coming spring, and will be spending a long weekend there next April, so the WC Economy wont be loosing out on my Gautengaleng Rands entirely. Besides when CT gets packed out, service goes seriasly downhill.

will be my 4th in 2012

 

Been lucky :

 

1 # a STORM of storms 2009 ( 4:42)

2 # Kwaai wind 2010 (3:28)

3 # No wind and puncture 2011 (3:14)

 

2012 . . . Hopefully 2:59

 

:D

 

Cant wait !

Def going for 2nd... 1st was an absolute blast... Had to go careful cos of cramps from Smits (no surprise, no distance in training) but overtook LOADS after Chappies. and Boyes Drive wasn't such a big deal (no wind tho!)

Did my first LSD yesterday and already further.

Also in for Die Burger...

If you haven't done the Argus before, don't listen to the yawns... it's really worth it, even/especially at the back! I've heard so much moaning but then I wonder if those peeps actually enjoy cycling anymore??

Yupp!

I reckon that Boyes Drive is part of the Argus route for at least another year (or two)

I've don the previous three, starting with the Argus of storms.

 

1. 3h05

2. 3h05 (Irony)

3. 2h36 (Whohoo)

 

I'll be skipping next year. It is quite an expensive trip for the five or so days. Saving money for better equipment!

Time to go back. :thumbup:
