AuctionLamb Posted September 21, 2012 Share who said its not hard enough? when you chat with the guys after the race...from Elites right through to Masters not complaining...the shorter the better...not fit enough for longish races!!!

B) I get you, but was just saying that this is a road spring league and not a kermesse or criterium league. How much development does a young elite get with doing 56km road races in the Western Cape? But it's so nice in the bunch...no wind to contend with, drafting up the rollers...

Bike Mob Posted September 27, 2012 Share Wonder why the reduced distance?Like a road closure costing thing or something... It's the traffic road closure, we are only allowed to be there until a certain time granted by the traffic dept.

Not sure who drove the chase.
