rattlesnake Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I still have a 50km mtb entry; will give it away for free and for gratis - PM me.
Agteros Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 noob question about the "Tog bag van (A tog bag van will transport your baggage to the end of the next stage)" Am I right in assuming we'll have access to our tog bags on the van between the stages?
EZRider Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Of course, it's for your bottle refill mix, sun cream etc. and to put your jacket in after stage one.See you all there tomorrow! Agteros 1
Akkedis Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Packed and ready to go. Just hope the cold front will hold up for another day. Sunday is definitely going to be cold. See you there.

pastapouch Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 did it. Lost my sence of humour with that wind. Was buggerred after stage 2. Said to the family I'll see where I get. jOINED the C group, kept up with them for 35, dropped of and finished the stage on my own. Same with stage 4. Still had the legs for the flats. goin up, I provd that you can stay upright at 5k per hour. Legs are a bit stiff and sore today. good race, excellent goody(foody) bag. Potjie was brilliant. Had to vulture last night.

jmaccelari Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Awesome ride. Tough headwinds on stages 1 & 2. The tandem bunch was great except for one case of bad sportsmanship on stage 2. That and whoever allowed Jacques Fullard & Hansie Joubert to enter should bd shot! They hurt us baaaad... I cr@pped myself when they pitched up for stage 4 in one piece TT outfits!

Joe Low Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Did you get to see JoLo?????Caught sight of Cervelo in the beer tent - I was watching rugby by the door for a quick exit. He looked a bit cross, truth be told. Come on Championchip wheres the results? Two years ago me Waterbottle and Scotty sat in Maxxis north of Polokwane on the N1 for Sunday morning brekkie and the results were up. Whats up - someone shoot your carrier pigeon?

Agteros Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Saw lots of bicycles being driven away after stage 2. How many people called it quits after the wind?
Spinnekop Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Results are up: http://za.onreg.com/results/index.php?File=results_search.php&DataID=1416&DB=za
Agteros Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Nothing spectacular for me, but I am happy. Started coming down with a flu before the race and could see it in my elevated HR readings. However on a more 'fun' note, really enjoyed going down the other side of the mountain on stage 1, especially the long straight drag with the wind from behind (measured about 82km/h). Wind blowing through the little 'klofies' yanking my front wheel around was a little disconcerting at 60+km/h though! Stage 2 when I could not hang with the bunch I dropped back (mistake for the day) as it was more word going at 20km/h solo than 30 in the gutter!
StumpJumPer Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 The Race was Amazing!!!!! My first and DEF. not my last....You will see me there for as long as you have this Event...
