GU Energy Labs SA Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 HI Guys! Thanks for the awesome feedback, seems the taper has made you pretty sharp as you quickly picked up that we forgot to mention the location of the Roctane gels on the race. They'll be available at the Virgin Active run aid station. We'll definitely try get dustbins on the beach, thanks for the suggestion. We're also busy putting together a hamper that should be available at the expo and possibly on our website, will keep you guys posted. We're taking the other suggestions to heart and will do our best to implement those which are feasible in future events. Please keep the feedback coming, especially post race. GUd luck with your taper and travels!

Sidekick Racer Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Looking at the weather report I get the feeling this thread is going to turn into something like the Argus thread as Sunday gets closer... I hope I am wrong!

GU Energy Labs SA Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Do you sell the gu gels bottles that mount on the top tube? RRP? HI JGR we're unfortunately out of stock of the gels flasks, however the stands at the expo like Fluidlines etc. usually do stock flasks with the mount. You should also be able to find one at your local tri store.
Garfield2010 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Posted March 31, 2014 The weather prediction will still change. Monday is crap weather lets hope this does not move to Sunday... What does seem to be clear is that it will not be very hot. Maximum seems to be around 20 degrees every day which is perfect....... Now all we need is for the 15km/hour wind to turn West.
Garfield2010 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Posted March 31, 2014 So boys... Lets assume the weather will be OK. What times do you have in mind?

Sidekick Racer Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 First full so makes pacing and time prediction tough. Know the form is solid though so will see how it goes on course...
fabes Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 A FinishIll be happy for anything between 12:30 and 14 hours. All weather depending. Not trying to scare you guys or make you negative but if the east is blowing prepare yourself now mentally for a slower bike time

GUd luck with your taper and travels!Thanks, that is great. Can you comment on how the Gu Bru is mixed. I have heard from a few people it is quite diluted - is this accurate? How many KJ can we expect to get in the bottles mixed for the bike, and cups on the run? tks
ADe Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 So boys... Lets assume the weather will be OK. What times do you have in mind?Finish my first.
sluiper Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 So boys... Lets assume the weather will be OK. What times do you have in mind? Best case scenario for me is to break 12 hours. 1:05 swim0:05 T15:45 bike0:05 T25:00 run My run really sucks, so I'm going to have to pace myself very nicely to manage a 5 hour marathon.
