nathrix Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 @36ONE: Team 36ONE-SONGO-SPECIALIZED lift their bikes over their heads as they cross the river - in the lead with 360Life

Cyclewizz Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I may be (and probably am) way off the mark but my understanding is that a Hotspot is an 'arbitrary' point on the route (not KOM) at which point the first team wins cash. Intended to make the racing exciting? So this is where you made all your winnings last year ?
splat Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) From what i understand there is no connection. 360ne is some kind of company.. 360 Life is life insurance from Nedgroup: http://www.nedlife.c...roducts/360Life360ne is asset management: http://www.36one.co.za/index2.htm They don't seem to be related, but its confusing for following the teams on live updates (jeez, I am off the pace today!)

nathrix Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 @AbsaCapeEpic: @Nedbank360life and @36ONE now several minutes up the road with chasers resigned to fight for 3rd today. Between are Fedgroup stuck in no man's land
GLuvsMtb Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Guys I hear what you are saying about 360life most probably not being able to make up enough time for a podium finish. However, remember that any team out there may still hit a mechanical or 2 so things could change in the blink of an eye. Yes, it will be a near impossible task if good fortune shins on all the top teams WRT mechanicals...36One Songo has a strong backup team for this eventuality, so does Bulls. If you don't have to "chase the game" you can afford to be more conservative (like 36One did last year) on the more technical sections. It seems like the only thing that would derail another 36One Title at this stage would be injury or illness to either rider.
Ratty Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I am getting NO work done today thanks to all of you updating.
