Tiny K Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Your Burger will count, but previous Argus results “will have an influence” according to the orgies. I did the 94.7 to improve my Argus seeding but I don’t think it paid off. PPA seeding seems to be based on my Argus ’11 result so waiting for the seeding to come out and will decide then whether to ask questions of them! You can check your national seeding in cyclelab's webiste - http://old.cyclelab.com/Seeding.asp - that is what the Cycle Tour guys use for their seeding for the Argus. My seeding is down to 12.014 with Die Burger results loaded. Got 7.354 for a 2:25 Burger :clap: Super stoked!!!
Wannabe Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 hi ladies and gents if you enter the argus and you not a professional rider just go out there and enjoy the ride and scenery.been doing it for 17yrs now and i really enjoy just being part of the worlds biggest timing event. Horses for courses. Everyone has a different reason for cycling. Some do it for fun, some are more serious.
'Dale Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 ok, so lets get to some real business, if I did a 6H30 argus last year (rode with Mrs Slowbee who is did her first one), do you think they will seed me in $ ? Only if YOU gave the Cycle Tour Trust some of your $$$...
'Dale Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) I need to find 8-10 minutes to do a sub3. I honestly do not know where the hell to find it, or where to ride smarter on the route ! Some "seasoned" riders must have some golden tips !Tienie, If you start in the first few alphabet bunches and you get a top 10 position, the clock will take care of itself.

Bianchisti Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 You can check your national seeding in cyclelab's webiste - http://old.cyclelab.com/Seeding.asp - that is what the Cycle Tour guys use for their seeding for the Argus. My seeding is down to 12.014 with Die Burger results loaded. Got 7.354 for a 2:25 Burger :clap: Super stoked!!!Thanks for that. My weighted index is 39.292. My 2010 Argus race index was 41.166 and last year came down to 35.25. the 94.7 I got 41.461 so yup, it didn’t pay off.I started in a much higher group in 94.7 that has a smaller field so that race must be more difficult but the field for the Argus is stronger. I think?? Probably won’t be starting much earlier than last year but this year’s goal is sub 3:30 regardless of the weather. If the weather is good….
Hearts* Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 My index is 40.967, what start time would this be ±?
FanieFiets Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 My index is 40.967, what start time would this be ±? seeding is out tomorrow, then you'll know.

Tiny K Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Any one know about what time P will start Down from RR You have your seeding already? If so, I don't have mine yet.
Bianchisti Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Shouldnt that read "up" from RR. They go through A-Z first right...
leet22 Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 You have your seeding already? If so, I don't have mine yet.Not really just the PPA seed but its better that it was last year RR on PPA must be ealier than last year

JGR Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 i am 35.3 so when do they consider you a vet i am in the 45-49 Correction - i meant concerned. Just had my 30th end of last year so im in the Vets 30-34 ... just feels weird to be referred to as a Vet
