[MudMuppet]

Hey guys,

 

Great to see all the feedback! It seems as if everybody had a good time and enjoyed the new route format.

 

We will putting in just as much effort for the rest of the series, so I hope you have all entered for the next race...enter here: http://advendurance....es/trailseeker2

 

Hopefully we can add a few goodies to the race packs

Hey @Tim, Did my firat "70", upgraded from last years 40's, had a great race (boy was the pace fast, all the DirtRoadies must have loved it). Well done to your team.

Are we going to have more climbs at Cullinan? My legs can't spin like that for another race......

we started in the 20km D batch with a beginner friend. We stopped to help a stranded rider and ended up being lapped by the 40km A and B batch and I must say, what pros! where we could we stopped to let them past and everybody was courteous (except for ONE lone @SS that shouted and screamed that we were in the way).

 

Well done organisers, our beginner friend greatly enjoyed her first ride

Last year this one was tough.

My first Trailseeker Race, did the 40km (+-43km's) in 2:26. Thoroughly enjoyed it... the section with the drop off, the stairs and the steep downhill slope was the highlight for me. Definitely one Ill keep in mind for 2013 as well. Already registered for #2.

Registered 762m accent at Cullinan last year vs the 566m Saturday at Tyger Valley (on the marathon). If I remembered correctly, the Cullinan route was a bit more technical as well.

I should give credit where it is due. Well done organizers, much better. Routes always great, but this time marshalling, venue, final kms congestion, etc also spot on. Thank you.

Cool. Gonna leave my easy gear on!

I found the route very boring, too flat and not enough tecnhical stuff.

There was one bit of technical riding before the steps and that was about it. Out of all the Trailseeker events I've done, the Van Gaalens race is much more fun.

 

Very well organized though, and well marked route.

Great race! Really enjoyed it!

 

Would have been so much better if the guy I gave a tube and lent my pump to could at least have returned the pump at the end! Learned my lesson for next time! Will give tubes in future but pumps, make sure you have your own!
