dino Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I really hope the weather is good. Camping in the rain sucks. Looking forward to my first b&b!
Pam Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Does anyone have the gps mapping for the 2 day event?
Ratty Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Thanks for the advice.. decided on Race King, Mountain King combo, for now. Last week before the Great trek and I can't wait!! I can't wait either. Getting really nervous though. Not worried about the riding, its all the logistics. Once I'm safely at registration with a bike in one piece, i'll be happy. Doesn't help that my bike is currently in hospital having her wheel rebuilt (had to get a new hub).

Grease Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Worth taking two pairs of riding shoes for this one?
Benjamin Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Worth taking two pairs of riding shoes for this one?Should be fine with one, unless they break or split.
Grease Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Should be fine with one, unless they break or split.No water crossings then? I saw on the latest newsletter there's talk of a bit of water lying about.
Ratty Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Batches are out. Not that I think they matter too much for the Great Trek, only 243 rides. Its going to be nice and personal.

Stretch Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 looks like the great trek might be slightly wet
L.T.G Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Oh no! We're not on the start list. Maybe they're scared of your SpykerBombs!
Ratty Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 looks like the great trek might be slightly wet Weather SA's report looks better. I'd rather have some rain though than heat so I'm happy. Doesn't look like it will be stormy so thats cool. Think its going to get lonely at the back of the Great Trek with so few riders. I like having others around who are suffering as much as me :-) For those doing the Great Trek, what are your team names?
