Ja, like last year, the climbs upfront will break you making that last kick up at Vulture Canyon a bitch! I remember that last year I actually pushed my bike up oom Piets, which is not steep at all. I was just so knackered at that stage!

 

Can't wait... Sufferfest coming up!

I assume this only applies to the 70? How does the 35 compare to the Nissan halvie?

 

The 35km and 18km route profiles will be up next week. The idea with these two races is to make the race as much fun as possible. No major climbs, nice flowing single track, lot's of space to pass other riders. Eric will be putting all the nice to ride stuff together for these two events.

 

Good for the whole family.thumbup1.gif

I'm still pulling thorns out my arms from when I went over my handlebars at the VG race, so I learnt the hard way already and would rather just have sections that I can ride without fear of death.

 

The very technical downhill has not been included, just long jeep track, very fast decent!thumbup1.gif

anyone doing the 18km and wanting to finish after the medals has been handed out? (iow go very slow?)

I am not allowed to ride without company yet...yes yes it is basically someone holding my hand..

Going to be a sufferfest of note. Seems like both my bikes are out of order. Geared and SS. So i may just quickly build an old Trek with gears or an old Gary Fisher SS. Starting to wish i had entered 35km ha ha

You have a perfectly good Trek now waiting for all your SS goodies to be moved across...
