ChUkKy Posted November 21, 2012 Share Jislaaik, can't wait for that section. That's where we'll earn the beers! You know what will make my day is if I get to the top of that section and someone has a beer point setup with ice cold quarts of Castle light and nice tjerries to look at while sucking it back Race organisers - hint hint.... nudge nudge flyluis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChUkKy Posted November 21, 2012 Share It's technical but don't worry about the climbs worry about going downhill. Top Tip: Start slowly, you're gonna need something extra later like epol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rouxtjie Posted November 21, 2012 Share on lesson I learned, DON'T RUSH UP THAT SECTION - spin spin spinYea, I have seen many okes pop on that little climb, passing isn't worth the energy you are spending. You will pay for it later in the day. It's also the place where the pro's attack in the VG races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's where I made "my move" last time, and the trail made its move on me from 40km onwards, and I came 3rd between the 2 of us.... rouxtjie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChUkKy Posted November 21, 2012 Share Stay off the brakes, they'll only slow you down.... I only use them when I really need to slow down and miss a tree or something harder than me, sometimes used as a turning aid at the back also... divernick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
