G-Unit Posted October 14, 2012 Share Hey gerhardc, my wife and I met you yesterday at registration. Just had a look at this thread and the penny dropped. Good luck on the prologue - we'll try say howzit afterwards. Spawn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaco-fiets Posted October 15, 2012 Share I can't seem to open the race results on the pioneer website. I assume they update it daily? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted October 16, 2012 Share I can't understand why all the top teams are not at this race with the prize money on offer. RECM, Itec, MTN etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V12man Posted October 16, 2012 Share hey hey...360life takes it....100 gorillas at the top of the swartberg + stage...via twitterThey still have to finish in the top 10 overall at the end of the event in order to get the cash. If they come 11th, no cash... if they don't finish, no cash... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcza Posted October 16, 2012 Share huh...so there is smallprint?, according to the official bridge cape pioneer twitter account..."100k in the bag" It's in place to prevent teams winning the stage and then relaxing. Just wish there was more competition but I'm sure Evens and George are smiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nettie R Posted October 16, 2012 Share We watched the highlights of stage 1 on tv last night.A swarm bees attacked a few riders and a guy had what looked like 50 stings over his arms. Not a cool way to leave such an amazing race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Unit Posted October 17, 2012 Share My wiife and I were one of the unlucky ones who were stung by bees. We both ended up in hospital on Monday. I am still unable I ride. My wife was feeling fine by the end of yesterday, so I dropped her at Prince Albert this morning, so she could do today's stage. I'm pretty bummed out, but I guess that's life.

Hi G, sorry to hear this but glad you're ok. Hope you get to ride a couple more stages & look forward to hearing more about this event. I'm keen to enter next year.

I'm keen to enter next year. Thanks. I'm hoping that I'll be able to ride tomorrow. Still a couple of awesome stages left. It's a pity that we couldn't do the Swartbergpas climb. We rode up it yesterday in the car, and it is brutal. The last 3k kicks up really steeply. Just about every team who got to the top looked FUBAR. And what is not advertised is that while the timing stops at the top you still have to cycle another 21k into Prince Albert. Eina.
