rattlesnake Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 VA's rode quite negatively on the R28 - no one wanted to show their hand. Avg speed up to R28 was a shade under 40. If the pace was consistent I reckon 2:25 was on the cards. Anyways I guess it's more about the win then the time with the Vets. Also a bit of a gripe, racing tandems got in the way with 6kms to go, they really should start after the racing vets.
cyclenut Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Crazy...:-oalso saw a white cab providing VB riders with a slip on the M1. If you get dropped early suck it up
Agteros Posted November 18, 2012 Author Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Some temp & wind stats for my ride. Actual time on the x-axis.Taking the highlighted 8:13:18, the temp was 22.1 deg. Celcius. Windspeed was 5.8km/h - green line and it was a slight headwind (black line, positive value of 1, negatives are tailwinds) Edited November 18, 2012 by robox
Karooryder Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Peculiar day of racing for me. Started my morning on the way to the starting blocks with that wonderfully discouraging psssss shhhppp-shhhhpp-shhhhpp sound (by the way, I’m very quickly losing confidence in Gatorskins…fitted a pair before Amashova and, where I never had a single puncture before, I now stand at five with the Gators…). Change the tube, speed back to my car (parked halfway back to Pretoria) to get a new spare, and make it just in time to catch the start of the last of the C’s…did a reasonable 2:41 but I would have liked to sub the 2:40 mark in the B batch with more consistent bunch riding in the wind. Maar dit was lekker! Edited November 18, 2012 by Karooryder

Thug Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Ended up with a riding time of 3:45 on a SS mtb. Stopped at Fournos Dunkeld for a double espresso and also on the N14 for a beer! Well done Jules on your result in VA's!
