Does anyone know what will happen if it rains very hard/storms on the day, does it get cancelled or postponed?

 

You get wet.

The only thing that the rain affects is your cornering speed. The heavens opened at the 2010 The Fast One and we (junior men) still averaged 41.5 (granted it is a flat race.)

I don't mind getting wet, but on the race number form it states "In the case of heavy rain, this ticket may not be valid"

 

Thanks for the rule info.........blush.png

 

That from what i understand this is to do the the parking on one of the fields / its part of a school or something and they dont want us hillbillies messing it up with our cars if it gets water loged .

To change the sound of moaning...

For most (OK, all this year) events I'm seeded AL. I'm seeded B for the 94.7. Of the 5 seeding events I've done my seeding varies from 14.6 for the R4S to 70.07 for the 2011 94.7

 

 

2012 BESTmed Jacaranda Satellite Classic

2012 Randwater Race for Victory ---> Second best seeding

2012 Dischem Right 4 Sight ---> Best seeding

2011 94.7 Cycle Challenge ---> Worst seeding

2010 94.7 Cycle Challenge ---> second worst seeding

 

I'm somewhat surprised to be in B wink.png Wasn't expecting anything lower than C, I as actually preparing for an E or F. Consider myself quite lucky to be in B and I hope I'll be able to hang on to the end!

 

To be totally (dis)honest, I put in a good word for you.

Explained to them that you actually going to aid me in achieving my target time so they immediately put you into the B bunch.

 

A simple "Thank You" would be nice thumbup1.gif

Some 4 years ago late starters were caught in a hail storm out on the R28/N14 and they had to take cover under the bridges.

Just ride fast.

Thanx man.... but your 'explanation' went too well. Why do I have to start so early now? (ahead of 1hill it seems?)

Why do you lot need parking tickets? Um... whats wrong with riding your bike to the start? If you too far get family to drop you, then get them to wait the 2 or 3 hours for you. That way you not having to drive after 5 or 6 beers at the finish... whistling.gif
