Absa Cape Epic Stage2 : 119km, 1650m

[Kranswurm]

If I was .....hehe... ok I'm not but I'd consolidate today and give the legs a rest, let the nerves settle and mabe pull a big move tomorrow. I think the teams will all be expecting heroics from 360 life today and will be monitoring them carefully..

But I'm not

 

That's a hell of a big ask

 

23 mins probably equates to about 10km's?

or 1.5 km per day they need to win by....

 

Or have I got my wires crossed?

"Bulls, 360Life + rest of big names all keeping up. Unless there's a break in the hills before Water Point 3, could be a very close finish"

Nee ooh Donner.. I wasnt even Implying they can make the time back.. I personally think its a bit to big a ask, If lady luck shards all over songo361 they could have a outside chance, but I mean mearly making it back onto the podium.. or a respectable place.

I just meant istead of riding my brains out everyday I wonder If one or two big efforts wont be rewarded better..? ah speculation..

Bulls 2 flat just as the move goes. 36ONE and 360Life hit the top of the koppie. So strong today.

He's so tough he only needs one side...

[NotSoBigBen]

In my totally unprofessional and inexperienced opinion I guess that besides racing 36one, 360life would also like to make as much time on the other contenders as possible so as to at least try to get a podium at the end?

Is it just me or Is that a 26'' HT in the background in Nathrix's photo?? my word.. that is BAt **** crazy..I heard its Impossible..How does he even stay upright on a 26''.. Im just joking ..
