Bianchisti Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Local favourite Raynard Tissink passing 70km. What's his plans these days? I take it his not going to Kona? is he hanging up his "racing kit?"

MariusL Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Just seen that the 6th guy i know has bailed on the race. Are the conditions that bad then???
Thug Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 A lady friend of mine didn't complete the first lap of the swim. Was fighting cramps because of the cold and bailed.
jannosmit Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 What's his plans these days? I take it his not going to Kona? is he hanging up his "racing kit?" I think I read somewhere he is "getting his head straight". Took an "off" year. AfricanX and Epic not what I would say an "off" year
Bennie Dikwiel Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Are the conditions that bad then??? Just came back from the turnaround point on the Seaview rd. Wind is blowing a gale SW! Longest bike lap times on record. My guess is that this race will also be one that will go down as one of the most DNF's - Its seriously tough out there!

Abercrombie Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Just come back from watching, wind unbelievably strong . Was difficult for my kids to stand upright. Guys and girls taking serious strain, once they turn then they fly with westerly behind them but to get to that mark they are really battling in this wind, plus it's a cold wind on top of that. Just been chatting to American competitor who's chain snapped, well done to Wayne Pheiffer helping out with chain breaker.
Thug Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Heeeeeeeeectic - all that training then the weather plays havoc... gotta love IM... Why aren't you there?
Shebeen Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Heeeeeeeeectic - all that training then the weather plays havoc... gotta love IM... the windy city delivers! don't think I've been there since hobie worlds where it pomped all week long.
