Musashi Posted April 10, 2012 Share Yes, it is on the same day as the 100 Miler. Did it two years ago and it really is a nice race. There is one part where you cycle through the old train tunnel by candle light. It's very cold early in the morning, but worth it! I'm sorry I'm missing it again this year. If they could just move it one week either way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could just move it one week either way...a week earlier and the sani2c riders will miss out, a week later and everyone doing the Robertson whacky wine race will miss out.

Musashi Posted April 10, 2012 Share I have the Wacky Wine weekend as 9 June. That leaves 2 June available. But I guess it's one of those things, I cannot actually do every nice race there is. Great problem to have though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted April 10, 2012 Share Its a great race - very cold usually dry conditions with snow on the berge if you are lucky. Nice mix of terrain - some vineyards and jeep track as well as rolling Karoo tracks which are probably the most fun you can have on an mtb...

SeaBee Posted April 11, 2012 Share Yeah - I had two must-do rides on my list for now... this one and the 100-miler. My luck, they're on the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
