Argus Training Rides, 23/02/2013 & 02/03/2013

[Wannabe]

Had a good look at the Racing Calender leading up to the Big Day on 10/03/2013, and the only dates open to do the customary Route recce's is on these two dates.

Who will be interested?

Start will be about 06h00 at Greenpoint VA, and we'll avoid Nelson Mandela Blvd and Blue Route, joining up with race route at foot of Boyes Drive and completing rest of route from there.

 

Those interested, enough time to arrange your things and Diarise the dates.

IN! Both dates clear and Diarised!

[Hearts*]

I'm in for 1 date, most probably 02/03/2013.

Sounds good, what type of pace do you envisage (considering the congested race calender before and after the Argus)? Edited January 14, 2013 by Brogue

Not too hectic, it is a training ride, not a race. Mountain Goats can test their legs on the climbs, but we regroup at the top (Smitswinkel, Chappies, Suilerbossie) If avg is 25-28km/h, it will be be really good going.

I'm in, for the 23rd Feb. Gonna taper in the week leading up to the Argus, do a bit of running too.
