Eldron Posted November 17, 2011 Share Think I'll hit the Howtrain from Centurion 9am Friday Fantastic idea sir! I was dreading the number collection until I read your post. Tomorrow I drive to the station and train it in. Thanks for the heads up - guess I really need to recalibrate "car oriented" brain - never even thought about the Cowtrain...

Indeed, do that, Sandton is a mess, I was in Katherine drive early this morning (nothing 94.7 related) and Grayston was backed up 30 minutes, around Sandton its chaos with the road works just on Fredman, if you can go by some other means except car do it, the aggro is not worth it.

Nickzta Posted November 17, 2011 Share Just got back. Parking was already chaotic, but the collections queues weren't too bad.Nice stands were Giant, Pinarello and shimano.Some other nice stands as well, but nothing that stood out more than in previous years.No scantily-clad dollies promoting things either, but there was some eye candy on display. 32gi stand is big and Mark was their talking nutrition - spent about 15minutes with him. The fantastic biltong place is back, right at the exit so keep your cash. Also, if you're looking for kit, anatomic has a stand selling most shirts at R250, which is a bargain. Nice designs without plentiful sponsor's branding, which I like. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bateleur1 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Every year I hated the thought of going to the registration. Normally tried to organise someone to get my number. But with the Gautrain, no problem. Had to go to Centurion to pickup some equipment. Parked at Centurion station and got on the train. No parking issues. And it seems to be a hit. On my way back I think almost everybody that got on the train in Sandton was cyclists. We were all waiting for the train with our goodie bag in hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
