howmuch Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 How can this be out already - thought the major launch was tomorrow night ??
stringbean Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Don't know where you guys get the idea go Knysna to CT.That route will never ever happen again.Insiders say too many bridges were burnt with the farmers in the first few epics ,so access to that route will never happen.
rouxtjie Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Don't know where you guys get the idea go Knysna to CT.That route will never ever happen again.Insiders say too many bridges were burnt with the farmers in the first few epics ,so access to that route will never happen.There was a bit of hype built around it with rumours and mr epic never denied it outright so people thought it could be true, I am sure it didn't hurt them ito filling up the no's. What do you mean by bridges were burnt with farmers?
kandui Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 At that rate someone will be paying you to ride it in 2014!That would be the next logical progression, but I somehow doubt it.The sponsor has a contract with the Epic until 2014, so there is a 50/50 chance I might get another ride to make it 4 in a row.One of the leading teams (non professional) is budgeting R 300000 for the next year. This telephone number includes everything though, from wear & tear items during training, right up to race support (no upgrade packages or camper vans).Once my luck with sponsor entries has run out, I will tick off the Epic as "done" and move on. It will make my wife ecstatic.

I FLY Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 I will tick off the Epic as "done" and move on. It will make my wife ecstatic. We reached this stage after the 2010 race. It made my bank manager happy.
V12man Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 I'm going to the route launch tomorrow evening Shhhh - it's supposed to be secret...
Tumbleweed Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 So, what was the big announcement about the 10th anniversary? The prize money?

V12man Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Yea, from what I can gather from the the youtube clip... There was prize money mentioned? I watched the whole thing and did not notice that - not that I plan to win it anyway.
