dirtrider Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 hmmm, this is going to be a tough one. starting in FF due to not having done any races for the last 2 years. Should I complain about my seeding ? Did a sub 3 hours the first time I did this race a few years ago . I got people here that have never done a cycle race seeded in FF and better .

Agteros Posted October 29, 2012 Author Posted October 29, 2012 For only buying a road bike 2 months ago and only riding it about 4 times I guess "N" isnt tooooo bad...just unfortunate I am not able to ride the damn race now. Would have been awesome I think.If you want to experience the 'vibe', take a gazebo, suntan lotion, friends, food(gas braai?), refreshments (for you and cyclists coming by, especially the back markers), and go 'camp' at the corner of Witkoppen & Malibongwe. Lots of people on that little hill on Witkoppen! many will stop for whatever refreshments being offered to them (tequila, beer, whatever!)
Karooryder Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 T-minus 3 weeks...can't believe it's that time again! Did Solomon Mahlangu (Hans Strydom) a few times this morning on training route...and I think the legs are reeeeaaaady . Got mine - E whatever that means. Just one gripe, number collection at Sandton Convention Centre = ball ache. Where do you live? If you're in Pretoria, taking the train is super easy as the Sandton Station is just around the corner from the Convention Centre. Make a morning out of it; visit the exhibition, spend some cash and get with the vibe.

Tubehunter Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Seeded A but starting in KK, as I'm riding this with my Mom. Hope to see plenty of you out on the road! Karooryder and SilverRider 2
