If you have space, take a coolbox with ice. Nice to have a cold beer/recovery drink after te race.

 

Some good advice there. Done Sani twice before, so I have a good sense of the packing requirements and daily routine. But now that I'm operating with my car nearby, I was wondering if there were any benefits or tips I could utilise.

sure but that will only last for Day1 or is there ice that will stay frozen over the whole weekend, like that dry ice or will they sell ice at the venue?

There are coolboxes that will keep things frozen for a week if treated correctly. It is mostly about the thickness and quality of the insulation of the box and not opening it too often. You can also use something called Techni Ice. But I won't stress too much about keeping beer cold on the W2W, you can buy cold beer from the bar there.

 

Good luck to all you lucky devils, enjoy it! :)

Can anybody please confirm if 1.) they received 2bags & 2.) what was in both?

 

I have two of the exact same goodie bags. The oomie giving it to us also forgot to give us our first ascent bags.. Had to ask him.

So which tent is best? Some say as far away from the toilets & showers as possible?

Unless they've changed from previous years, tents are allocated to you by your race number - so there is no choice.

I did it last year and the previous year and on both cases your rider number is attached to the tent, so find your tent and move in.

The normal ice was fine last year.
