Motard660 Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 It is raining cat and dogs! Even IF the rain stop, the route is going to be water locked! Count me out, but those doing it......you going to need wet suits!

ricochet_rabbit Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) Take it easy in the covered forest sections that haven't had chance to dry. Rode up at Karkloof and in Cascades in the week and it's real slippery. Glad to hear Worlds View has dried up a bit. Watch out for the section along the river, down to town (that replaced the old Roberts Road downhill) and the steps... we ended up going down roberts road so the course was pretty much the same as two years ago. descent from hilton was a bit hairy at times and there were some really muddy patches...luckily the rain stayed away too. one ride got hit by a car riding past the Arc. Car hit him from behind, bucked his rear wheel and he landed on the bonnet. The story goes that the Police stopped the car, Breathalised the driver (found to be 1.2) arrested him, impounded the car and left his 4 mates just standing there.

ricochet_rabbit Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Anyone know the results of the ladies? All results here: http://results.finishtime.co.za/startpage.aspx?CId=35
ricochet_rabbit Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 According to the results there were 926 Entrants & 405 Finishes with 16 race withdrawals so if my maths is any good that makes only 421 starters.
